      They were good but nothing great I think if you put more Nutella in them or chocolate chips would be perfect they just need a little something more

      These were soooo good!!!! 10/10 recommend! Instead of peanut butter I used cookie better because I ran out of peanut butter, even if I did had peanut butter I would probably use cookie butter! it tasted like a chocolate chip cookie without the chocolate chips! Amazing!
