Banana and Nutella Cookies taste like banana bread but are heaps better. The nutella comes as a real surprise as you wrap the cookie dough around the frozen dollops of nutellla.

These cookies may have banana in them, but they are no health treat, they're so flavoursome thanks to the butter, sugar and nutella. As a result make sure you share them.

Warning: this cookie dough recipe is spoonalicious - so make sure you don't eat all the dough prior to baking the cookies.
