Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (125g) Nutella
- 1 1/4 cup (165g) all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 cup (110g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1/2 cup (100g) light brown sugar, packed
- 1/3 cup (75g) granulated sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup (180g) dark chocolate chips + more for topping
- Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling
Instructions
- Start by prepping the Nutella. Line a plate with wax or parchment paper and dollop 8 tablespoons onto the plate. Pop it in the freezer while you start on the dough.
- In a small bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the butter and sugars. Vigorously whisk for 1-2 minutes.
- Next, mix in the egg and vanilla. Vigorously whisk for another 1-2 minutes.
- Switch to a rubber spatula and mix in the dry ingredients.
- When some flour is still visible, fold in the chocolate chips to fully bring the dough together.
- Cover the bowl and chill the dough for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop the dough using a large 2 oz scoop (or 1/4 cup). Flatten out the cookie dough and place a frozen scoop of Nutella in the center.
- Mold the cookie dough around the Nutella and make sure it’s completely concealed with no cracks.
- Place 3-4 cookies on the baking sheet, all well spaced apart. Top with more chocolate chips if desired.
- Bake for 13-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the center looks just barely underdone.
- Sprinkle the warm cookies with flaky sea salt and transfer to a cooling rack.
- Allow the cookies to cool for about 20 minutes, then enjoy!
