Nutella and I have a history together.
Most of it involves a spoon and late nights highlighting my textbooks in college.

But I usually just sneak a small spoonful late at night.

Then, rub the skins off the warm nuts, if you wish.

For a little extra melty chocolate flavor, heat the cookies in a microwave for a few seconds.

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating for 30 seconds after each addition.
Add the vanilla extract and mix for 10 seconds.

Spoon tablespoon-sized drops of dough onto parchment paper-lined cookie sheets (you could also use silicone baking mats).
