3- Ingredient Nutella Cookies
Description
The cookie dough is made by mixing Nutella with an egg, then incorporating all-purpose flour until a sticky, uniform dough forms. After chilling briefly, the dough is portioned into small balls. Optionally, pressing a center indentation in each ball allows room for a fill of additional Nutella after baking.
Baking at 350°F produces cookies with lightly golden edges and a tender center. Cooling the cookies before adding extra Nutella topping creates a soft, indulgent bite with layered hazelnut chocolate flavor. The simplicity of the ingredients highlights the Nutella.
The recipe allows customization by drizzling with Nutella or dipping in melted chocolate after baking. Adding mix-ins such as chopped hazelnuts or sprinkles can enhance texture and presentation for variation.
Ingredients
Cookies
- ⅔ cup Nutella plus more for filling
- 1 egg
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F
- In a medium bowl, add the Nutella and the egg. Mix until just combined.
- Add the flour (all at once) and mix to medium speed for about 3 minutes or until you get a uniform sticky dough.
- Cover and place the dough in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes. Form 12/15 balls from the dough. (25 grams each)
- Use your finger or the bottom of a wooden spoon to press the center of each ball to form a well. You'll later fill this with more Nutella! (Note, this is optional, but highly recommended!)
- Place the balls 2 inches apart onto a prepared baking sheet. Bake at 350°F until edges are golden, around 10 minutes.
- Let them cool for about 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Then, pipe more Nutella onto the cookies if you're planning to do this, and enjoy!
Notes
- Press a well in each cookie dough ball before baking to add Nutella filling after baking for extra flavor.
- Consider drizzling or dipping cookies in melted chocolate as a topping alternative.
- Adding chopped hazelnuts or sprinkles can give extra texture and visual appeal.
