Tips/Notes
- Feel free to experiment with other types of store-bought or homemade cookie dough.
- May substitute regular Nutella, Biscoff cookie butter, or chocolate ganache for the Nutella Peanut.
- I would advise against skipping the dough's weight if you want equal-sized cookies. Using a kitchen scale and weighing the dough is key to perfectly sized cookies.
- On my half-sheet pans, I had nine rows of cookie balls, with seven per row.
