Peanut Butter and Nutella Cookies

It has been one of those days.  I was really down and decided to bake some cookies. Yes I know you're not supposed to solve depression with baked goods.  Good thing I can't hear your judgements over the munching of these cookies.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1/3 cup peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
1 cup sugar (whatever you fancy)
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/3 cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 cup Nutella
Directions:

Cream butter, peanut butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla together until smooth. Combine flour, baking soda and salt and add to butter mixture. Add Nutella in dollops over the top of the dough.  Use a butter knife to swirl the Nutella through the dough for a marbled effect.  Do not over mix.  Chill the dough in fridge for 15 minutes BEFORE spooning onto cookie sheet.  You will kind of have to smush the dough into disks since it will be hard at this point.  Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes.  Let cool a few minutes on cookie sheet before transferring.
