Nutella Cups

Happy Halloween!!!

 

I made these for my works Halloween luncheon today. They are fairly easy to make and they are very delicious! Once you've started, it's hard to stop eating them. 

Ingredients:
1 cup butter (softened)
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
Jar of Nutella(12 Tbsp per batch)

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease your mini muffin tin (unless it is nonstick).
2. Cream butter and both sugars in a bowl until light, smooth and fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla until fully incorporated. Combine dry ingredients (flour, salt, baking soda) in a separate bowl. Then gradually add dry ingredients until all the flour is mixed in!
3. Roll dough into balls 1.5 inches thick. Pop them in the mini muffin tin and bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown but not too dark around the edges.

4. When done, remove from oven and let sit for about 2 minutes. Then make wells for the Nutella with a shot glass, a similar object or a spoon. Add 1 Tbsp Nutella to each cup – it will start to melt quickly so you can swirl it around and make it nice and smooth.

5. Let cool 15-20 minutes in tin. Remove from tin and place on cooling rack or serving plate. Nutella will solidify in about an hour, which then makes them safe to transport. This recipe makes enough for 3 to 4 batches (about 50 cups). Enjoy!
