Nutella Chocolate Chip Cookies

Have you discovered the wonders of Nutella yet?  Well if you haven't had a taste of this heavenly spread I highly suggest buying a container or six.  One container to make these cookies and the other five for whatever you please.  It had been a long time since I had Nutella until about one year ago when I was at the store.  I was in the check-out and the impulse buys were all calling out my name.  I was sitting there debating treats, chips, soda, beef jerky and life in general when I saw a glow out of the corner of my eye.  I immediately jumped at the Nutella and cookie combo package and decided it was fate.  Needless to say that container of yummy goodness didn't last long.  Now that you understand my LOVE for Nutella you must try this delicious recipe out! Happy Treats!
