Ingredients

12 tablespoon nutella frozen
115 g salted butter cold
160 g brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg cold
270 g plain flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ cup of chocolate chips

Instructions

Make Nutella Filling

Line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper.
Then add blobs of chocolate spread onto the lined tray.
Place the tray inside the freezer so the chocolate blobs set completely. Leave them for at least 1 hour.

Make Cookie Dough

Preheat your oven to 360ºF or 180ºC. Place the cold butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Then, beat the butter and sugar for about 4 minutes or until it becomes light and fluffy.
Next, add the egg and vanilla extract. Mix until they are just combined.
In a separate large bowl, sift together all-purpose flour and baking soda. Then add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredient bowl and carefully mix the ingredients together until a dough forms.
Add chocolate chips to the dough and mix again. The dough should have a uniform consistency and texture. Scoop dough using one serving tablespoon or scoop.
Shape the dough into a ball then roll and flatten each ball on a non-stick surface or by hand into a 2 ½ 3-inch disc. Place the frozen chocolate blob in the center of your cookie dough disc.
Shape the cookie dough around the chocolate dollop and shape it into a round ball. Place the ball onto a lined baking sheet and flatten it slightly. Repeat these steps with the remaining dough and add the remaining chocolate chips on top of each dough ball.
Bake the stuffed cookies for 13-15 minutes. Once they have finished baking, let them cool in the baking tray for 5 minutes as they will still be soft. Then move them to a wire rack and allow them to cool at room temperature for 15 minutes.
Enjoy these mouth-watering stuffed Nutella chocolate chips and serve them as a treat or snack.

Notes

Mixing: Scrape down the side of the mixing bowls as you make a batter or dough to ensure that all of the ingredients are evenly and uniformly combined.
Chocolate spread: Do not use the chocolate blobs until they are set. If they are too soft, they will start melting as you work with them.
Cookies: To make evenly sized cookies, it is best to divide your cookie dough by weight. You can first weigh the entire dough ball and divide the number by 20. Weigh each ball as you make them to ensure it is exactly the right size.
