Ingredients

  • 1 cup (298g) Nutella or other chocolate hazelnut spread
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon (15g) packed brown sugar
  • ½ cup (62g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (85g) chocolate chips, plus more for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper.
  • Add Nutella, egg, sugar, and flour to a large bowl. Use a hand mixer to mix until a thick cookie dough forms, then mix in chocolate chips.
  • Scoop 2 tablespoon balls of dough and roll them between your palms to form a ball. Place balls onto cookie sheets, 3-inches apart. Use your palm or a drinking glass to lightly press them flat.
  • Top each with a few extra chocolate chips.
  • Bake 14-18 minutes, or until no longer glossy on top. Cool 10 minutes on cookie sheet before removing.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.

Notes

  • These don't flatten properly without a little help, so use the bottom of a glass or another flat object to flatten the tops of each cookie before putting them into the oven.
  • If you’re on a budget, there’s no need to splurge on the name brand. Generic chocolate hazelnut spread will do just as well – your guests won’t even know the difference. 
  • Add nuts with the chocolate chips or a pinch of sea salt on top for a nice salty sweet finish.
