Ingredients
Pillsbury® Snickerdoodle Cookie Mix
1 package (17 1/2 ounces) (Use as directed in the recipe)
Butter, softened
1/3 cup (Soften in the microwave for 10-15 seconds if needed)
Large egg
1 (Use as directed in the recipe)
Vanilla extract
1 teaspoon (Use as directed in the recipe)
Jif® Chocolate Flavored Hazelnut Spread
1 cup (Use as filling for cookies)
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
2
In a medium bowl, combine the Pillsbury® Snickerdoodle Cookie Mix with softened butter, a large egg, and vanilla extract. Stir with a spoon until a soft dough forms. To soften your butter quickly, place the unwrapped butter in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds.
3
Using a level measuring teaspoon, scoop out dough to form 3/4-inch balls. Roll each ball in a mixture of sugar and cinnamon to coat evenly before placing them on the prepared baking sheets.
4
Create a rounded indentation in the center of each cookie using the back of a rounded measuring teaspoon.
5
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 6 minutes. After the initial baking, gently remake the indentations, ensuring they are deep enough to hold the filling.
6
Fill a resealable plastic bag with 1 cup of chocolate hazelnut spread. Snip off a corner of the bag to create a small opening. Squeeze the spread into the indentation of each cookie by starting at the outer edge and swirling inwards toward the center.
7
Return the cookies to the oven and bake for an additional 4 minutes to allow the centers to set perfectly.
8
Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
