These 3-Ingredient Nutella Cookies offer a simple yet delicious treat perfect for any occasion. With just Nutella, an egg, and all-purpose flour, you can whip up soft, chewy cookies filled with extra Nutella for a luscious twist. Easy to prepare and quick to bake, these cookies are ideal for Nutella lovers seeking a sweet, decadent snack with minimal ingredients.

Ingredients

Cookie Dough

  • ⅔ cup Nutella (plus more for filling)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s at the right temperature by the time your dough is ready.
  2. Mix Nutella and egg: In a medium bowl, combine Nutella and the egg. Stir until the mixture is just combined and smooth.
  3. Add flour: Pour the flour into the Nutella mixture all at once. Mix at medium speed for approximately 3 minutes until the dough is sticky and uniform.
  4. Chill the dough: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for about 15 minutes to firm it up for easier handling.
  5. Form cookie balls: Remove dough from refrigerator and shape into 12-15 balls, each about 25 grams. Use your finger or the back of a wooden spoon to press a small well in the center of each ball if you wish to fill it with extra Nutella.
  6. Prepare baking sheet and bake: Arrange the cookie balls 2 inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment or a non-stick surface. Bake in the preheated oven for around 10 minutes, or until the edges are just golden.
  7. Cool and fill: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Optionally, pipe extra Nutella into the wells for a delightful filling before serving.

Notes

  • Pressing a well into each cookie ball before baking is optional but adds a lovely Nutella filling.
  • Be careful not to overbake; edges should be golden but centers soft.
  • Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
