Description

These nutty oatmeal lace cookies sandwiched together with Nutella® are a deliciously crispy treat.

Ingredients

1 cup butter, melted
1 cup white sugar
1 cup light brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats
1 cup ground pecans
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 (13 ounce) jar chocolate-hazelnut spread (such as Nutella®)

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with silicone baking mats or aluminum foil, shiny side down.
2 Beat melted butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together using an electric mixer in a large bowl. Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. Beat in vanilla extract. Stir oats, pecans, and baking powder into the batter.
3 Drop batter onto the prepared sheets, 1 teaspoon at a time, spaced 3 inches apart; batter will spread out very thinly while baking.
4 Bake in the preheated oven, watching very carefully, until edges just start to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Keep cookies on the baking sheets; they will finish baking as they cool and harden. Cool completely before removing from the baking sheets, at least 10 minutes.
5 Choose 2 cookies that are the same size. Spread chocolate-hazelnut spread very thinly on 1 cookie and sandwich the other on top. Continue until all the cookies are paired and filled.
