Ingredients
– 115 grams of unsalted butter (room temperature)
– 90 grams of brown sugar
– 50 grams of granulated sugar
– 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
– 1 large egg
– 140 grams of plain or all-purpose flour
– 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
– 1 teaspoon of cornflour or cornstarch
– 40 grams of cocoa powder
– 1 tablespoon of milk
– 12 teaspoons of chocolate spread (frozen for at least 30 minutes)
Instructions
1-Diving into baking these Nutella stuffed chocolate cookies is straightforward and enjoyable, starting with simple steps that lead to amazing results. First, beat the unsalted butter and sugars until they combine smoothly, then mix in the vanilla extract and egg for a creamy base. This sets the foundation for a dough that’s easy to work with and full of flavor.
2-Next, stir in the flour, baking soda, cornflour, and cocoa powder to form the chocolate dough, adding milk if the mixture feels too dry. Preheat your oven to 180ยฐC (350ยฐF) for standard settings or 160ยฐC (320ยฐF) if using a fan-forced oven, and line your trays with parchment paper to avoid any sticking. Now, take portions of the dough, flatten them slightly, place a frozen ball of chocolate spread in the center, and carefully wrap the dough around it to seal everything inside before rolling into balls.
3-Arrange the dough balls on the prepared trays and bake for 10 minutes until they’re just set. Let them cool on a wire rack to keep that gooey center perfect. For more baking inspiration, try our blueberry muffins recipe which pairs well with this one for a variety of treats.

๐ง Keep the chocolate spread frozen until you’re ready to use it – this prevents it from melting and leaking out during baking
๐ช Don’t overbake the cookies – they should look slightly underdone in the center when you remove them from the oven for that perfect gooey texture
โฐ For best results, refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes before shaping if it’s too soft to handle – this makes it easier to work with
