Instructions
Position racks in top and bottom thirds of oven. Preheat to 350F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, beat butter with sugar until fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla.
Roll dough into 1-in. balls and place on sheets 2 in. apart. Using your thumb, make a deep indent in the centre of each ball. Bake in top and bottom thirds of oven until golden, 12 min. Let cookies cool on sheets 1 min. Transfer to a rack to cool completely. Pipe or spoon a dollop of Nutella in centre of each cookie. Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.
