 Directions

Cookies
1. In a large bowl, beat butter and peanut butter until well combined. 2. Add sugar and beat until light and fluffy. Mix in egg and vanilla.
3. In a separate small bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder and baking soda. Mix into wet ingredients.
4. Scrape down from sides of bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
5. Pre-heat oven to 375 F. Line cookie sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper.
6. Roll dough into 1 tbsp sized balls, roll in the granulated sugar to coat. Place on baking mat and press down slightly with a fork. Sprinkle with sea salt.
7. Bake for 7-9 minutes until bottoms are golden brown. Cookies will look under-baked when removed from the oven but will set up on baking sheet. Cool for 5 minutes, transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Assembly
8. Spread 2 or so tsp of Nutella on the bottom of one cookie. Top with another cookie. Smoosh. Eat.
