Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy using a hand or stand mixer.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl and mix until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
Scoop out small portions of dough (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll them into balls. Flatten each ball slightly and create a small indentation in the center using your thumb or the back of a spoon.
Using a piping bag or teaspoon, fill each indentation with a small dollop of Nutella (about 1/2 teaspoon each).
Place the filled dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the cookies are still soft in the center.
Immediately after removing the cookies from the oven, gently press a Hershey's Kiss (or similar candy) into the center of each Nutella-filled cookie.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Nutella Kisses!
