These are a delicious treat. Soft and chewy chocolate cookies are made with Nutella and topped with sea salt before being sandwiched together with peanut butter.
A long while back, the fabulous Cheryl of Tidy Mom posted the recipe for Salted Chocolate Nutella Sandwich Cookies. I LOVE Nutella. Anything that has that ingredient is an A+ in my book. So I printed off the recipe & added the couple things I needed to my list for the market.
I had planned on going to the market on Saturday afternoon to pick up what I needed & then make the cookies Sunday morning before football started. My family had other plans. They saw the recipe on the counter & BEGGED me to improvise & make it immediately. They were not having this waiting for Sunday idea at all.
I increased the Nutella in the dough to 2 1/2 tbsp because I literally only had that much in my jar. The recipe called for 2 tbsp- I wasn’t about the leave that little 1/2 tbsp in there- so the more the better- right??!! This however left me without any for spreading between the cookies to make the sandwich.

With all that chewy chocolaty goodness, it’s almost like a thin brownie edge. Everyone loves the brownie edges – right? Mmmm, just thinking about it makes me want to make another batch.
