    As my recipe for Nutella cookies was such a hit, I thought I’d try making a giant double layer cookie filled with Nutella. Sounds good? It absolutely was! Serve with a generous scoop of ice cream – enjoy!

    Why doesn’t love a giant chocolate cookie with a rich Nutella filling!

    This is a perfect sharing dessert – or not!

    It’s great that this giant cookie doesn’t take long to make.

    Top tips for a big chocolate & Nutella cookie

    1. Make the dough ahead – (at least 30 minutes or this allows the flavour to develop and gives a wonderful texture to your cookies.
    2. Chill the dough – the dough will be easier to handle when chilled and this will keep them from spreading too much during baking.

    How to make it

    • When you are ready to make the cookie, divide the dough into 2 parts.
    • Cook’s tip: If cooking immediately, and the dough is still a bit sticky, add a couple of more tablespoons of flour till it is smooth.
    • Press one half down to cover the base of a skillet and spread a layer of Nutella over it.
    • Then, on parchment paper, roll out the other half of the cookie dough till it is a similar size to the first and place over the layer of Nutella.
    • Bake, cool and serve.

    To Serve

    Enjoy with a big scoop of ice cream or a glass of cold milk.

    Ingredients

    Metric | US Customary
    • 1 cup butter softened
    • 1 cup white sugar
    • ½ cup packed brown sugar
    • 2 ½ cup flour
    • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
    • 2 medium eggs beaten
    • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    • 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
    • 1 teaspoon warm water
    • ½ teaspoon salt finely ground
    • ½ cup Nutella

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 175C/350F. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, white and brown sugar till smooth.
    • Mix in the beaten eggs, vanilla extract and salt.
    • Dissolve the baking soda in a teaspoon of water and stir till dissolved, then add to mixture, blending well.
    • Fold in the flour and cocoa powder and mix to make a dough. Cover and chill for at least 30 minutes.
    • Press half the dough into a large cast iron skillet lined with parchment paper, ensuring the cookie dough doesn't reach as far as the sides.
    • Spread the Nutella evenly over the dough. Press out the remaining dough using fingers, on a large piece of parchment paper, till it is a similar size.
    • Gently lift and place it over the layer of Nutella.
    • Bake for 10 minutes after which cover with baking foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes. Allow to cool before serving.

    Notes

    1. Make the dough ahead –  allows the flavour to develop and gives a lovely texture to the cookies.
    2. Chill the dough – the dough will be much easier to handle when chilled and will prevent the cookies from spreading too much during baking.
    3. If the dough is still a bit sticky, add a couple of more tablespoons of flour till it is smooth.

      Anything with nutella is a winner in my book – but especially when it is sandwich in-between things like this!
