World Nutella Day

We're normally pretty saintly when it comes to the food we eat and the treats with which we reward ourselves.  Well, normally when we don't have people over (cookie bar anyone?)  But in honor of World Nutella Day, we made some of these:

Nutella No Bakes

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup milk
1 3/4 cups sugar
1/2 cup cocoa
1/2 cup Nutella
1 tsp vanilla
3 cups rolled oats

In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine butter, milk, sugar, and coca.  Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.  Reduce heat and continue to boil for 3 minutes, still stirring.  Remove from heat and add vanilla.  Add Nutella and mix well.  Add oats and mix well.  Drop quickly onto parchment or foil and allow cookies to set.

Try these when you get a chance.  You won't regret it.  Ever.

Your recipe doesn't have any nutella. I made these and actually preferred our original recipe, replacing half the peanut butter with nutella.
