    Nutella-Filled Chocolate Chip Cookies

    Jump to Recipe

    This recipe combines my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe with a center of creamy, gooey Nutella. So. Much. CHOCOLATE. This is definitely a must-try!

    All of the steps to this recipe will be the same as my Best Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe (linked here), except for the addition of the Nutella filling. The extra chocolate makes these cookies just THAT much more decadent – and who would have thought that was even possible?!

    In order to easily add the Nutella to the center of the cookie, you will first freeze 1-2 teaspoon spoonfuls of Nutella on to parchment paper. Then you can wrap the cookie dough around the frozen dollop of Nutella. Super simple! The frozen spoonfuls will look something like the photo below. Then use a cookie dough scoop to measure out some cookie dough, flatten it out and wrap the dough around the frozen Nutella ball. Then it’s time to bake!
