Bad day? Have one of these bad boys, perfect for chocoholics and peanut butter lovers alike. These cookies will even keep peace amongst enemies; they're so distractingly delightful.

Cook Time:

Prep Time:

Total Time:25 min

Servings: 12

Ingredients:

3/4 cup unsalted butter

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1 cup Nutella

1 teaspoon vanilla

4 cup confectioner's sugar

1/3 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup finely chopped dry roasted peanuts

Preparation:

To start, make a classic chocolate cookie like this recipe. If necessary, double your batch since these call for 2 cookies for 1 sandwich.

Always add a small hole in the center of the top cookie so guests can see what they're getting themselves into when they grab one.

For the filling, gather the first 4 ingredients in a large bowl. Beat the butter, peanut butter, Nutella, and vanilla until fluffy.

Slowly add ½ of the confectioners' sugar and afterward, add ¼ cup of the cream.

Add the remaining confectioners' sugar and beat until well-blended. If needed, add more cream if necessary for preferable consistency.

Lastly, fold in the dry roasted peanuts. Coat the bottom half of the chocolate cookie with about 1 tablespoon of the filling. Cover it with the top cookie and enjoy!
