Nutella cookies

Monday, 9 January, 2017 By Nicole 10 Comments

These Nutella chocolate cookies are so easy and quick to make – chewy and crispy with a gooey Nutella centre! What more could you want? They are a  perfect quick-fix for chocoholics .

In my opinion, a good cookie should be soft and chewy in the middle with a crunch on the outside. They have a slight bulge in the middle where, naturally they are filled full of delicious Nutella!

The recipe is so simple, you could get the kids involved – any kids.

Refrigerating the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes (up to 3 days) prior to baking gives these results:

  • The moisture from the wet ingredients in the dough gets a chance to absorb properly into the dry ingredients, making the dough less sticky
  • The butter will take longer to melt in the oven, limiting the spread of the cookies.  As the cookies crisp up on the outside, they are not able to continue spreading. This keeps them thicker.
  • The flavour of the cookies improve the longer the dough is kept refrigerated and they develop a wonderful rich caramel flavour.

If you need your cookie fix in a hurry, make three batches – one to make now, one to age in the fridge for a couple of days, and one to freeze.

If these small cookies are a bit on the small size, consider upsizing to this giant cookie!

This just leaves the all important question – do you like your cookie warm or room temperature?

    Seeing that ooey gooegy stretch of Nutella has me absolutely swooning! I’m one of those people who’d have to make three batches…because there’s no way I’d be able to let that delicious dough chill!

    Warm cookies crispy on the outside & chewy on the inside – these look perfect! Great tip to refrigerate the dough to keep them from spreading.

    I love Nutella SO much! We only ever have a jar in the house for special occasions otherwise I’d eat it all day every day. I think making these cookies counts as a special occasion though don’t you?
