Ingredients
  

  • 3⁄4 cup brown butter (start with 1 cup of regular unsalted butter if making your own)
  • 1⁄3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2⁄3 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1⁄2 tbsp vanilla
  • 2 cups AP flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1⁄2 tsp baking powder
  • 1⁄2 tsp Salt
  • 1⁄4 cup Nutella
  • Sea Salt

Instructions
 

  • Heat butter in a light-colored pan over medium heat until butter is melted, stirring occasionally.
  • Once butter begins foaming/bubbling, begin stirring more consistently.
  • Continue heating and stirring until butter begins to turn a more amber color and smell nutty. Little orange bits will begin forming on the bottom. That’s the good stuff.
  • You’ll want to remove the butter from the heat when the bits at the bottom START browning, but before they burn.
  • Remember, you can always brown your butter more, you can’t brown it less.
  • Once browned, letter butter cool until it reaches a spreadable consistency.
  • Preheat oven to 350 and line a baking sheet with parchment or a silpat.
  • Cream butter and sugar together until fluffy, at least 2 minutes in a mixer.
  • Add egg and vanilla and mix thoroughly.
  • Add flour mixture in two sections, and mix until just combined.
  • Make 6 equal balls of dough, then make a deep well in the middle of each. Similar to making a pinch pot.
  • Fill holes w 1⁄2 Tablespoon of Nutella, then seal the hole up and re-roll/pat into a ball.
  • Bake for 12 minutes, turning halfway through.
  • Let cool on a baking sheet for at least 30 minutes, then drizzle w Nutella by filling the corner of a piping bag/a ziploc and taking off a tiny bit of the tip.
