Nutella Cookies with Dark Chocolate and Sour Cherries
IMG_2906

These cookies were made for my little girls. I know they seem like they may be kind of adult flavors- but my kids are weird like that. They like black coffee and dark chocolate. They are their father’s girls.

The Nutella is for Coco in particular. She is a serious lover of Nutella and will eat it by the spoonful. Here is a video of her first time eating Nutella. (When we were in NYC a few months ago, room service brought little jars with the toast. )

This recipe also features my new favorite cocoa powder: Hersheys DARK. They are not kidding when they say dark! All you have to do is look at the pictures to see that. It is like almost black- and it tastes richer too. Fantastic stuff that is reasonably priced!

So besides the Creamy nutella and the dark cocoa powder, there are also chewy sour cherries and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Funny enough- the coco is so dark that the chocolate chips look like milk in comparison!

Enjoy these cookies- they are a wonderful indulgence and even better with a glass of cold milk ☺
