If you love Nutella (who doesn't?!) then you are in for a treat with these Nutella Stuffed Cookies! They are delicious soft nutty chocolate cookies with pure Nutella running through the middle. So damn good! You'll also only need 3 ingredients to make them - flour, eggs and Nutella (or any chocolate hazelnut spread). You don't need to add extra sugar or fat because Nutella has those elements within in.
How to make Nutella Stuffed Cookies
First mix together egg and Nutella until smooth.
Add plain flour and mix until all of the white of the flour is gone and a smooth dough forms. Split the dough in half and then split each half into 10 small pieces (so you'll have 20 pieces total) roll 10 of them between your palms, then flatten them. Put on lined baking trays, and add a spoonful of Nutella in the middle.
With the remaining dough pieces, make another disc of cookie dough and place it on top of the spoonful of Nutella. Then press down the edges with your fingertips to seal it in. Bake the cookies for 10 minutes.
How long do the cookies last and can they be frozen?
The cookies, once fully cool, should be stored in an airgtight container for up to 3 days. They can also be frozen, again in a airtight container or a freezer bag, for up to 3 months.

Thank you Susan!
Jane
Hi! These look absolutely amazing! Like all your recipes!
If I was to freeze these, at what point would do that? After sealing the Nutella in with the top cookie dough?
Thanks again!
thebakingexplorer
Hi Jane, thank you so much! I freeze them after they are baked and fully cooled 🙂
Jane
Brilliant thank you! I just been out to stock up my baking cupboard! Nutella cookies coming soon!
If any actually end up frozen (unlikely...😏) how long back in the oven before serving?
Thank you again!
thebakingexplorer
I've not baked them from frozen, I'm usually too desperate for a cookie and I always put it in the microwave! 😀 But I reckon check after 5 minutes in the oven and then maybe a couple extra minutes if needed?
Jane
Just tried this recipe, and yum yum yum!! Big thumbs up from me and my hubby. So simple too!
I added a raspberry to a couple just to try out and can recommend mixing that in too!
So good, thank you! Will be baking these for up coming family visit!
