Yea, I worried the Nutella would leak out if I did the second bake. I hope my Italian ancestors forgive me and that they turned out well for you!

The additional flour is probably the cause of the end product being crunchy, but I don’t know why the dough was so sticky. I have not used butter from Aldi before so I am unsure of the consistency of their product. I am so sorry to hear that you are unable to hand them out as planned!

I used large eggs. They came very crumbly & really crunchy. The extra flour made them more dense & dry. I drizzled Nutella over them so that made them a bit moister. My husband & I will eat them but I won’t give them out to anyone like I had planned. I used unsalted butter. I thought that maybe it was the butter. He bought it at Aldi’s & sometimes I’m skeptical about the quality of their products. Thanks for your response!

Hi Rosemary, I am sorry to hear it is not cooperating for you! I am not sure what the problem could be. What size eggs did you use? I know the directions just said “eggs” but I have changed it to specifically call for large eggs as that is what I always use. If by chance you used larger eggs that could be the culprit for the extra sticky-ness. I hope they turned out okay!
