Ingredient Notes:

Peanut Butter Cups: Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups are such a fan favorite. I love the peanut butter and chocolate combination in anything. Did you know that these famous Peanut Butter Cups date all the way back to 1928 and have been on the top of every list of top-selling candy brands for decades?

Oreo Cookies: Another classic snack that we’ve all grown up with is Oreo cookies. These cream-filled cookies were introduced in 1912 and are still the best-selling cookie brand around the world. Oreo cookies are so good to add to baking or eat on their own.

Chocolate: Replace the semi-sweet chocolate with whatever chocolate you desire!

Can I use a different cookie? Swap the original Oreos for any flavor of your choosing OR use your favorite gluten-free sandwich cookie.

Get Creative: HAVE FUN with these stacks by adding more to them like sliced bananas, mini marshmallows, etc.! Instead of chopped peanuts, you can drizzle the tops with melted white chocolate or make it festive with colorful sprinkles!

Ingredient Notes:

Ferrero Rocher: These magical chocolate, hazelnut balls are produced by an Italian company, Ferrero. It’s been around since 1979 and has become a holiday staple for it’s beautiful combination of chocolate, hazelnut, and that delicious, airy crunch it has when you bite into it.

Hazelnut Butter: Hazelnuts are high in omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids so hazelnut butter is so good for you! Since Ferrero Rocher’s have hazelnuts in them, I love to use hazelnut butter specifically in this thumbprint cookie recipe. However, if you can’t find it, you can always use peanut butter.

  1. Preheat the oven to 355F, and line 2 baking trays with parchment paper.

  3. In a large bowl, combine peanut butter, butter, sugar, and vanilla, with a hand mixer on medium until combined and slightly whipped.
  4. One at a time, slowly mixes in the egg yolks, until just combined. Keep the egg whites in a separate bowl for later.
  5. Add the flour mixture and mix until well combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Chop the hazelnuts into small pieces and place them into a small bowl.
  7. Scoop the dough into “ping-pong” size balls, approximately 2 tbsp worth.
  8. Roll the cookie dough balls out with your hand, until smooth.
  9. Dip each cookie dough ball in the egg whites, lightly covering, and roll into the chopped hazelnuts.
  10. Place each cookie dough ball onto the baking sheet, and press your thumb into the top to create a small cavity.
  11. Shape the sides of the cookie if you need to create the perfect shape.
  12. Unwrap a Ferraro Roche chocolate and place it in the center of the cookie, filling the cavity. Repeat these steps until you use all of the dough.
  13. Evenly space the cookie dough 2-3 inches apart onto the baking trays.
  14. Bake for 18 – 20 minutes, until golden on the bottom and edges.
  15. Allow to cool on the baking trays for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
  16. Once slightly cooled, add the dark chocolate to a small bowl and slowly melt it in the microwave.
  17. Using a small spoon, drizzle lines of chocolate in a zig-zag to cover the top of your cookies.
  18. Enjoy this deliciousness!

How do I make this cookie chewy? These cookies will melt in your mouth like shortbread, bake for less time to make a chewier cookie!

Can I make this thumbprint cookie recipe dairy-free too? To make dairy-free, swap butter with earth balance, use plant-based milk, AND replace Ferrero Roche with your favorite dairy-free chocolate truffles!

I can’t find hazelnut butter: Replace hazelnut butter with peanut butter if you prefer!

Storage: Store cookies at room temperature in an airtight container for 3-4 days or in the freezer for 2-3 months. Allow to come to room temperature or warm in the microwave slightly to serve.
