I have been wanting to try making these Nutella cookies for the longest time but for some reason never got the chance to do so. But since today is World Nutella Day (who knew there is such a day?) I thought I ought to give it a try....after all I have some Nutella sitting on my counter top and waiting to be enjoyed.
The verdict - these Nutella Cookies are heavenly!!! Not only are they easy to make, they are so yummy too and amazingly not overpoweringly sweet! Moist, chewy and fudgy - pure chocolate deliciousness at it best! You really ought to try this!
I will give credit where credit is due....for this recipe I am totally indebted to Kirbie's Craving. I have adapted her Easiest Nutella Cookies for this recipe. And I would say --- it is a total winner!
Ingredients
1 cup Nutella
1 egg
1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons flour
1/2 cup Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips
Procedure
Preheat the oven to 350F.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the nutella, flour and egg.
Using a wooden spoon, mix until the dough comes together and no flour lumps remain.
Stir in chocolate chips until they are all incorporated into the dough.
For the next step, I used a rounded tablespoon to help shape the cookies into dough balls. It's actually a rounded measuring tablespoon for a tea pot so it's slightly larger than your usual measuring spoon but the latter should work well too. I managed to make about 18 dough balls.
Place the cookie balls on a cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. I pressed the cookie balls slightly to flatten them a little bit. I think I will just leave them rounded next time. If you want perfectly rounded edges on your cookies, then smooth out the cracks on the cookies. I wasn't bothered so I just left it as is, cracks and all!
Bake for about 10 minutes. Cookies would still be slightly soft but that's fine. Leave in the cookie sheet for about 3-4 minutes or until it has hardened just a little bit to make it easier to transfer to a wire rack. Let the cookies cool on a wire rack until completely set.
Enjoy the cookies while still warm-ish and the choco chips are still soft and quite meltingly tender. Or serve it after it has totally cooled too - the cookies still retain their yummy chewiness! Chocolate perfection defined!

DeleteMaking these and adding tiny jet puff marshmallows with the chocolate chips. Plan on using a cookie cutter to make them in Holiday form, you think since you mentioned to cook them in balls I should modify the baking temperature? Thanks
ReplyDeleteI really don't know if that would make a huge difference if you meant lowering the temp. I'd say try it as is. Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteI made these for my holiday trays this year, and while it was a mistake that I quadrupled instead of doubling the batch, I'm glad that's how it turned out. These are amazing!
ReplyDeleteAm so glad to know that - these continues amaze me every time, too. They are so well-loved. Thanks for letting us know.
DeleteMade these for the first time, made a double batch, they smell so sweet, guess good idea made them small. I'm sure they'll be delicious. Thank you for the recipe and will hold on to this recipe for next Christmas too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for trying them out and hope you all enjoyed the cookies! :-)
DeleteIt's a very easy resipe and I tried it with a copy product of Nutella, and the result was not good. They melted into one big mass and I suspect it was the copy product, so I think you should be aware of how oily a product you use if you don't use real Nutella.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip, Mille! I have only tried the original brand so we are thankful for the info. Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteWow.... so easy to make with my boys... thank you... ♥
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome and please enjoy, Felina. Thanks for stopping by. :)
