Ferrero Rocher Cookie Sticks

Ferrero Rochers' are my favourite chocolate of all time.

I can guarantee that l will receive a box of these little balls of joy for every occasion, Easter, my birthday, Christmas and Mothers day. So imagine my joy when l found a box in the back of the kitchen cupboard, eeeekkkk.

Over breakfast this morning my youngest and l were discussing what we would be baking today to which he wanted to make cookies ( so he can dip in his milk for afternoon snack) and this gave me the idea to make Ferrero Rocher cookies but with a difference. .

This recipe is simple to follow and within 25 minutes you will have a delcious warm cookies to enjoy. We have only used 6 Ferrero Rocher in our cookie dough recipe and the amount of Nutella you want to use is a personal preference, l know some people are mad for Nutella and may apply lashings of it, compared to my mere spreading. .

These cookies will get your taste buds going and today we have made cookie sticks (go crazy) instead of normal round cookies which left my youngest a little confused but apaprently they are going to be the rage this spring/summer.

Let me know what you think!!
