This Nutella-Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe is a must-try for chocolate chip cookie lovers!   The ultimate chocolate chip cookie experience! Stuffing the chocolate chip cookies with Nutella before baking is a tiny extra step that makes every moment worth it!

Why Nutella-Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies from scratch

Today’s recipe for Nutella-Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies is super fabulous!

They’re super chewy, super chocolatey, buttery chocolate chip cookies made from scratch. These Nutella-Stuffed Cookies are more of a special treat than just a good old chocolate chip cookie.

The Nutella filling in these Chocolate Chip Cookies isn’t overpowering . However you can overstuff the cookie and indulge once in a while.

The filling adds that extra melting sweet chocolate feel. The cookie dough has the perfect homestyle feel. Not too puffy, nor too flat and it’s very very chewy.

How to make Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies

The chocolate chip cookie dough is a breeze to make. You’ll need to beat the softened butter with sugars with an electric mixer for about 3 minutes. After that, add an egg and then quickly beat in the flour, baking soda and baking powder.

The chocolate chips (I use chocolate chunks from a chocolate bar) go right in and get folded in with a spatula. I love using a mix of dark and milk chocolate bits here. This adds a unique feel to the cookie when every bite is chocolate-y in a different way.

And by adding Nutella to the center of these homemade chocolate chip cookies, the chocolate experience is elevated to a whole other level!

Once the chocolate chip cookie dough is ready, just take a tablespoon-full. Now flatten the dough in the palm of your hand, then take a teaspoon of Nutella (more or less—no judging again) and place it in the center. Now you’ll fold the cookie dough over the Nutella and roll it gently with both your hands.

At this point, you can flatten the Chocolate Chip Cookie a bit and they’re ready for chilling or baking. Baking these Nutella-Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies right away will make them a little flatter than if the dough was chilled for an hour prior to baking.

All the tiny hands got messy making these Nutella-Stuffed Cookies, eating them, photographing them and sharing them with friends at the park. Actually, even the seagulls at the park had their share of those Chocolate Chip Cookies! Who knew they loved chocolate this much!

Chocolate Chip Cookies Tips

  • Fill these Nutella-Stuffed Cookies with as little or as much Nutella as you like.
  • Feel free to use any other chocolate spread or cookie butter to fill these chocolate chip cookies.
  • Chilling the dough for an hour prior to baking will yield a cookie that doesn’t flatten much in the oven.

    Oh my God! This sounds dangerous. And delicious. But, more dangerous. (To my waistline!) That is why I have just printed this recipe, because life is too short to be afraid of a little danger. 🙂

    What is not to love in this cookie? Chunks of chocolate and nutella is a dessert lovers dream. I personally love using chocolate chunks as well instead of chocolate chips. That is a good mouthful of chocolate goodness.
