If you like chocolate, cookies and especially Nutella these Nutella Stuffed Chocolate Cookies are the right treat for you. These decadent, rich, soft and chewy chocolaty cookies stuffed with melted Nutella are simply irresistible and a true delight for all chocolate and Nutella lovers.
I like to add salt and coffee almost every time I do chocolate recipes as both of them enhance the chocolate flavor, thus these cookies have a great balance between sweet, salty, chocolate and nutty flavor. By far one of the best cookies ever. Hope you will try them out. Enjoy!

Hi Njusaguy.
Yes, that is cerrect.
Is it possible to use white sugar instead of brown sugar?
Hi Paria.
Yes…you can.
Best Nutella stuffed cookies out there! My friend wrote down this recipe for me but I lost it. I’ve been looking through every recipe since until I found this one. The coffee really does make a difference. It doesn’t taste like coffee, rather it brings out that chocolate flavor like no other cookie I’ve had before! Love love LOVE this recipe!
To anyone wondering how these turn out and whether they’re worth the try, a million times YES THEY DAMN RIGHT ARE. SO these cookies were literally my first try at baking cookies (I’ve baked other stuff, not cookies ‘cos I was always afraid they might not turn out good), but I took a leap of faith, made these, and was shocked at how awesome they turned out. Honestly everyone at home LOVED them, I divided them amongst us 5 at home, but everyone ended up eating my share too, and I;m making them again today ‘cos they keep on bugging me. HOME COOKING ADVENTURE IS THE QUEEN (sorry I don’t know your name 🙁 )
Hi Hafsa 🙂 I am so glad the cookies turned out good for you .. hope you will try some other recipes .. by the way.. my name it's Ella 🙂 nice to meet you
Hi, how do I get the cookies to flatten out during baking? Mine seem to keep a fairly thick and rounded shape.
If I were to make these and then give them as gifts, would it still be as enjoyable to warm them up a bit in the microwave as opposed to straight from the oven? Would it ruin the overall cookie or will it still be tasty? I love this recipe!!
hi Ella, i wanted to ask: do you use regular cocoa powder or dutch proccess? please let me know. thank you 🙂
Hi, can I freeze the cookie dough/batter?
Hi, I had to use much more flour than 125g. I used 200g to get it looking like yours. 125g was like a cake batter.
