Hazelnut Cream Cheese Cookies



Ingredients:

1/2 c. margarine, softened
1/3 c. 1/3 less fat cream cheese, softened (about 2/6 oz.)
1/3 c. Nutella (or any other chocolate hazelnut spread)
1/4 c. brown sugar
1 1/4 c. flour
1 tsp. baking powder
pinch of salt

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Beat the butter and cream cheese together in an electric mixer until fluffy. Add the remaining ingredients one at a time until the batter is well combined and starts to come apart from the sides of the bowl. Roll the dough into tablespoon sized balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Press down slightly with your fingers (add sprinkles now if you wish to). Bake in the oven for 9-11 minutes until soft (they should still slightly fall in the middle if you press on the top). Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool fully.


(Makes 28 cookies, 2 WW points per cookie)
