Have you ever had those days where all you wanted to do is buy a huge tub of Nutella and eat it? Just grab it, and stick a fork, your hand, or your face inside the tub as though you were in some deliciously chocolaty eating contest!
While I am supposed to be doing homework that is due tomorrow (I still have time…) I am making cookies.
Otherwise I would be at my desk, practically drinking the Nutella out of the tub. And you don’t know how messy my homework gets when I bring over my delicious chocolate tub along.
Usually when I’m craving Nutella cookies, I will make my Nutella Drop Cookies. But this time, I wanted to try something different.
It seems like my posts have become a constant endorsement for Nutella. But I just really believe in this stuff. If it ever ran for president, I would vote for it hands down. Name it person of the year. I mean, the Higgs Boson was nominated to be the person of the year in the Times magazine. First of all, I read their article on the Higgs boson, and pretty much everything they were saying was wrong. Second of all..only like .001% of people care about this discovery, whereas everyone I know can appreciate some Nutella anytime.
These Oatmeal Nutella Cookies are perfect with a nice cup of coffee or tea. And so easy to make! There is no excuse NOT to make them!

I never thought about combining oatmeal cookies with Nutella! What an awesome concept!
It is so good! I can’t get enough. Thanks Nicole!
We love Nutella at our house! I have to bake these up asap! i know my kids are going to devour them for sure!
You must make them! They are an all around people pleaser 😉
Yes I have those days and I ❤ Nutella! These cookies are the next best thing. ..😊
Right? It is more acceptable than eating Nutells straight from the jar 😉
Over the past week, I’ve thought of Christmas in July way too many times. The only good thing to come from that has been the cookies this week! Will be adding this one to my Christmas cookie list!
Ooh, these would be amazing for Christmas cookies!
OMG these look addictive! I’ve never been fond of oatmeal cookies, but adding nutella is sure to win me over!
Adding Nutella to anything makes it 10x better. Thanks Kitty! 🙂
I had to google Higs Boson, and I’m with you. Nutella wins hands down. I love this recipe because I’m all about using pantry staples. Unfortunately, I’m out of Nutella. As soon as I get some, I’m baking some cookies.
Yay! Thanks Patti! It is one of my go-to recipes 🙂
Oh I do know those days when I could just eat Nutella straight from a jar! Your cookies look so scrumptious! Perfect treat!

I’ve never thought of putting Nutella in cookies. And I have to say that is a freaking fabulous idea! Now I know what to do with the rest of the nutella that’s been sitting in my cabinet so thanks!
It is rare for me to have Nutella just hanging out in my cabinet. This is definitely the recipe to try with it!
