Easy Peanut Butter Thumbrint Cookies with Nutella

These are the simplest peanut butter cookies you can make with an added a touch of chocolatey hazelnut to them to amplify the nutty goodness of these cookies. I use four basic ingredients to make the thumbprint peanut butter cookies and then a dollop of Nutella to finish it off.

The best part about this recipe is that if you are on a low carb diet, then you can tweak it to still enjoy the sweet goodness. Just switch you your favorite sugar substitute for the sugar. With the holidays approaching, a quick cookie recipe such as this can come in handy and the finishing touches make it look fancy enough for any holiday party or gift. I think the heartiness of chunky peanut butter makes these cookies ideal for either fall or winter celebrations.  You can always use creamy peanut butter as well, but I like the extra nuttiness that the chunky peanut butter gives each bite.
