If there are only half of the cookies left after taking the pictures for the blog… there is a good chance something really bad happened (attack or dinosaurs or cookie monsters). Oooor the cookies were just so damn delicious good they all got eaten right away. Guess what the reason was. I give you a hint: Nutella Cookies!

I made plenty of cookies, but these are by far the easiest I ever baked. Which were also delicious I have to add. There are only four ingredients you need: Nutella, some vanilla extract, an egg and flour. That’s it. Done in really no time and also baked quite quickly. You will love it. I’m pretty sure about that.

Normally I am a bit scriptural when it comes to recipes that seem soooo easy – can this be any good with hardly any work done? Yes it can. Maybe it’s the Nutella. Nutella makes everything better. At least for me…

If you don’t want to use Nutella here – the product certainly has been a controversial topic for some time – you can, of course, opt for alternatives. There are plenty of options available in stores that contain less sugar, for instance, and/or are made without palm oil. For many people, that last point is the reason they leave Nutella on the supermarket shelves.

To be honest, we find ourselves using Nutella less and less these days, too. In Spain, there is a fantastic, delicious, sugar-free (or better said reduced-sugar) substitute that we often bring back from our holidays. Anyone who has ever visited a Spanish supermarket will likely be familiar with this alternative hazelnut chocolate spread. Of course, if you have the time and inclination, you can also whip up your own version. All you need is a powerful blender and the right ingredients… ;)

DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG

  • English
  • Deutsch

1. Add the egg, Nutella and vanilla extract to a large bowl and mix on high speed for about 2-3 minutes until well combined. Add the flour and mix until just combined. Place the dough in the fridge for about 15-20 minutes.

2. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Fill the Nutella in a piping bag and set aside. Chop the hazelnuts coarsely.

3. Take the dough out of the fridge and divide it into twenty pieces and shape them into balls. Place on the baking sheet and make a well in the middle of each ball (works best with your fingers or the end of a wooden spoon). Pipe some Nutella in each hole and sprinkle with the hazelnuts. Bake the cookies for about 10-12 minutes. Take them out of the oven and let them cool down on the baking sheet for some time, then transfer to a wire rack and let them cool down completely. Store in an airtight container.

1. Das Ei zusammen mit Nutella und Vanille Extrakt in einer großen Schüssel auf höchster Stufe für etwa 2-3 Minuten aufschlagen. Das Mehl dazugeben und nur so lange unterrühren, bis sich alles gerade so verbunden hat. Den Teig für etwa 15-20 Minuten in den Kühlschrank stellen.

2. Den Ofen auf 180°C (350°F) Ober-/Unterhitze vorheizen. Ein Backblech mit Backpapier auslegen. Nutella für die Füllung in einen kleinen Spritzbeutel füllen und zur Seite legen. Die Haselnüsse grob hacken.

3. Den Teig aus dem Kühlschrank nehmen und in zwanzig Stücke teilen (z.B. mit einem Löffel abstechen), zu Kugeln formen und auf das Backblech legen. In die Mitte jeder Kugel eine Vertiefung drücken – entweder mit einem Finger oder mit dem Stiel eines Kochlöffels. In jede Vertiefung Nutella spritzen und dann mit den gehackten Haselnüssen bestreuen. Die Cookies für etwa 10-12 Minuten backen. Aus dem Ofen nehmen und auf dem Blech etwas abkühlen lassen, dann auf ein Kuchengitter legen und komplett auskühlen lassen. In einem luftdichten Behälter aufbewahren.

About me


Hi, my name is Marc. I’m a graphic designer.
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake – for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers – and it seems they like it most of the time. ;)
