Instructions

Scoop the Nutella into 6 small portions, roll into balls, and place them on a plate lined with baking paper. Freeze until completely firm. This step is essential so the Nutella doesn’t melt out while baking.

In a bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix until fully combined.

In a separate bowl, mix flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, cornstarch, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and fold gently until just combined.

Add the chocolate chips and fold them evenly into the dough.

Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Flatten each portion in your hand, place a frozen Nutella ball in the center, and wrap the dough around it, sealing well so the Nutella is completely covered.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (top & bottom heat). Place the cookies on a lined baking tray with space between them. Bake for 15 minutes until the edges are set and the centers still look soft.

Let the cookies rest for 5 minutes on the tray before moving them. The Nutella inside will be hot and gooey.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Chill Dough Thoroughly for Perfect Structure 🧊
Refrigerate your dough for at least 2 hours before scooping to prevent excessive spreading and maintain the cookie's fudgy center while keeping edges crispy.
Freeze Nutella Centers for Maximum Molten Effect 🎯
Scoop and freeze Nutella portions for 30 minutes before encasing them in dough to ensure the center stays gooey while the cookie bakes without leaking out.
Add Cornstarch for Chewiness 🥄
The cornstarch in this recipe is crucial—it creates a tender, chewy texture by inhibiting gluten development, so don't skip it or substitute it with flour.
Underbake Slightly for Fudgy Centers 🍫
Pull cookies from the oven when the edges are set but the center still looks slightly underdone (about 11-12 minutes)—they'll continue cooking as they cool for perfect fudgy brownie-like texture.
Bloom Your Cocoa Powder for Deeper Flavor 🌡️
Mix cocoa powder with a small amount of hot water before adding to your dry ingredients to activate and intensify the chocolate flavor throughout the cookies.
