Description

Soft and chewy Nutella stuffed chocolate chip cookies with gooey centers and crispy edges. Easy to make, perfectly sweet, and totally irresistible for any Nutella lover. (makes 12 cookies)


Ingredients

  • 12 teaspoons (about ½ cup / 140g) Nutella, frozen
  • 120g (½ cup) unsalted butter, softened
  • 100g (½ cup) granulated sugar
  • 50g (¼ cup) brown sugar
  • 1 egg, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 220g (1¾ cups) all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 150g (¾ cup) chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Place 12 teaspoons of Nutella on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for 20 minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer for 2–3 minutes until the mixture is creamy and smooth.
  3. Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix again for 1–2 minutes until well combined.
  4. Add the flour, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips, then mix gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until the dough is homogeneous and slightly sticky.
  5. Form 12 balls of cookie dough, press one frozen Nutella portion into the center of each, and wrap it completely in the dough so it’s fully enclosed.
  6. Place the cookie dough balls on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spaced about 2 inches (5 cm) apart, and chill for 30 minutes in the fridge or 15 minutes in the freezer.
  7. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and bake the cookies for 12–14 minutes until golden brown on the edges but still soft in the middle.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them carefully to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Storage: Keep cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

Tips:

  • Use a scale for accuracy — it guarantees perfect cookies every time.
  • Chill before baking so they stay thick and chewy.
  • Freeze the Nutella to get that signature gooey center.
  • Slightly underbake for soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture.
