Ingredients You’ll Need
For 10–12 cookies:
1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
½ cup (100g) brown sugar
¼ cup (50g) white sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup chocolate chips (optional, for extra chocolatey goodness)
10–12 tsp Nutella (pre-frozen, see tip below)
Quick Tip: Freeze the Nutella First!
Spoon small dollops of Nutella (about 1 teaspoon each) onto a parchment-lined plate and freeze them for at least 10 minutes. This step makes stuffing your cookies much easier and keeps the Nutella from melting too fast during baking.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Step 2: Make the Cookie Dough
In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, mix melted butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract, then stir until fully combined.
Slowly fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Stir in chocolate chips if using.
Step 3: Stuff with Nutella
Scoop out a tablespoon of cookie dough, flatten it slightly in your hand, and place a frozen Nutella ball in the center. Wrap the dough around it and roll into a smooth ball.
Step 4: Bake
Place cookie balls on your baking tray, leaving space between each one. Bake for 9–11 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown but the centers are still soft.
Step 5: Cool & Enjoy
Let cookies cool for about 5 minutes — then bite into that warm, gooey center. Heaven!
Tips for Perfect Nutella-Stuffed Cookies
Don’t overbake! Slightly underbaked cookies stay soft and chewy.
Use chilled dough if your kitchen is warm — it prevents spreading.
Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking for that sweet-salty contrast.
How to Store
Keep your Nutella cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. You can also freeze baked cookies for up to 2 months — just reheat in the microwave for 10–15 seconds to get that gooey center back.
