Ingredients
Cookie Ingredients
- 10 tbsp Nutella (or other chocolate-nut spread)
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips (or chopped 70% dark chocolate)
- 1 ⅓ cups plain flour / all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking soda (bi-carbonate soda)
- ¼ tsp cooking salt / kosher salt
- 120 g unsalted butter, cut into 1 cm / 1/2" cubes (fridge cold is fine)
- ⅔ cup brown sugar tightly packed
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp honey (or corn syrup)
- 1 large egg (55g / 2 oz, at room temperature)
Instructions
Preparation
- In a large bowl, mix together the butter and brown sugar until creamy.
- Add in the egg, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Fold in chocolate chips.
Chill the Dough
- Chill the cookie dough for about 30 minutes to make it easier to work with.
Prepare Nutella Mounds
- While the dough chills, scoop Nutella onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
Stuffing and Baking
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Take a small piece of cookie dough and flatten it in your hand.
- Place a frozen Nutella mound in the center, then wrap the dough around it, forming a ball.
- Place the cookie balls on a lined baking sheet, leaving space between each.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden.
Notes
Serve warm with a glass of milk. Dust with powdered sugar for an extra touch. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage.
