Ingredients
Oatmeal Cookies
- ¼ cup rolled oats
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
Oatmeal Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees and adjust oven rack to the middle position. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat, or parchment paper.
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
- In a medium mixing bowl, use a handheld mixer on medium speed to cream together the butter, sugar, maple syrup and vanilla extract until fluffy. Add the egg and beat for another minute, util the mixture is thoroughly combined.
- Add half of the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix together with a spatula until incorporated. Add the remaining dry ingredients and mix until no flour streaks remain.
- Using a small cookie scoop or spoon, drop 10 golf-ball size scoops onto the prepared baking sheet, about 1 inch apart.
- Bake the cookies for 12 minutes, or until the tops are dry. Careful not to overbake as you want the cookies to be chewy and they will continue to cook as they cool on the baking sheet. Cool the cookies on the baking sheet set on a wire cooling rack for 5 minutes. Transfer to the rack to cool completely. Make the Nutella Cream while the cookies are cooling.
Nutell Filling
- In a small mixing bowl add the marshmallow cream and Nutella. Mix with a hand mixer on medium speed until smooth - about 2 to 3 minutes. Place the filling in the fridge to firm up until ready to assemble the cookies.
- Scoop equal amounts of the Nutella filling on half the cookies, then assemble with the other half. The cookies can sit at room temperature for 6 to 8 hours. Beyond that, refrigerate to keep the filling firm.
