- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 medium egg
- 275 g plain flour
- 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp cornflour
- 200 g finely chopped chocolate
Instructions:
- Prepare Frozen Nutella Balls:
- Scoop heaped teaspoons of Nutella onto a lined tray. Freeze until solid, about 30-60 minutes.
- Make the Cookie Dough:

- Beat together butter and sugar until fluffy. Add vanilla and egg, beat until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, bicarbonate of soda, salt, and cornflour.
- Combine dry ingredients with the butter mixture. Stir in finely chopped chocolate until evenly distributed.
- Assemble the Cookies:
- Scoop portions of dough using a 5cm cookie scoop (or divide into 15 portions).
- Flatten each portion into a disc shape. Place a frozen Nutella ball in the center and wrap the dough around it, ensuring it is completely covered.
- Bake the Cookies:
- Line 2-3 large baking trays with parchment paper. Place 6 cookies on each tray, leaving space for spreading.
- Bake for 11-13 minutes until golden brown. Bake longer for less gooey cookies.
