11 Nutella Christmas Cookies Chocolate Hazelnut

Nutella Chocolate Chip Cookies

Nutella chocolate chip cookies are a delightful twist on the classic chocolate chip cookie, combining the rich, nutty flavor of Nutella with the gooey, melt-in-your-mouth goodness of chocolate chips. These cookies are perfect for holiday gatherings or simply enjoying a sweet treat at home. Follow this simple recipe to bring the joy of Nutella into your cookie jars!

Cooking Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This guarantees it reaches the right temperature for baking the cookies evenly.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside as you’ll add it to the wet ingredients later.
3. Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
4. Add Wet Ingredients: Add the vanilla extract and the egg to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat them together until fully combined.
5. Incorporate Nutella: Add the Nutella to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined. The mixture should be smooth and creamy.
6. Combine Dry and Wet Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture. Stir with a spatula or a wooden spoon until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
7. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
8. Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, scoop out the dough and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Leave enough space between each cookie as they will spread while baking.
9. Bake the Cookies: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown, while the centers remain slightly soft.
10. Cool Down: Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
11. Serve and Enjoy: These Nutella chocolate chip cookies are best enjoyed warm or at room temperature. Share with family and friends, or simply indulge yourself!
