You can make the cookies smaller if you want to yield more cookies.

Hey, I'm Kathleen. Thanks for stopping by my site, hope you find something you like and come back for seconds!
Yummmmm! I love nutella but for some reason it hurts my teeth, I think maybe because it is too sweet? Either way I still have two jars of this stuff in my pantry. I will have to give these a try.
Honestly, Kathleen, I nearly fainted when I saw this post today. I love Nutella in an unhealthy way and have yet to make cookies with it. This recipe is over-the-top! Can't wait to try it. Thanks for making my nutella-loving day.
Yum, I love a rich chocolatey cookie like this. The filling makes it extra special. When I get my next chocolate craving this cookie will be at the top of the list.
These look delicious!

Incredible.
They look amazing. Love that you turned the Nutella into a butter cream, just plain Nutella might have been too much! Too sticky and sweet. I would love to try these.
oh. my. gosh! those cookies look INCREDIBLE!!!
how many cookies does this make? a batch of 24 cookies to make 12 sandwiches or less?
Hey Katie! I’m really sorry but for the life of me I can’t remember! I’m trying to get better at posting the yield of a recipe. The problem with baked goods is unfortunately I often start tasting the dough and one thing leads to another and….Well i mess up the count! I promise I will exert more self control in the future. I Hope you enjoy them.
I just made these last night (and am pregnant so didn’t eat the batter) and got 13 cookies sandwiches. Next time I would probably make them smaller (use a flat TBS instead of a small cookie scoop) as I think they are pretty rich. I also had some frosting left over. Need to come up with some better ideas than eating it off the spoon
Thanks so much Rachel for letting me know how many cookies you yielded from this recipe. I think they’d be great smaller. I have to confess, I bought some fresh croissants and seriously enjoyed the left over frosting!
