Hi Bold Bakers! Hi Bold Bakers, Already have an account? Guys, this cookie recipe is one for the books! My Nutella Lava Cookies take the double chocolate punch of a brownie cookie (or “brookie”) and the gooey molten middle of a lava cake and combine them into one. Now you don’t have to choose between getting that Nutella fix or chocolate chip cookie hit because you can have them at the same time. In other words, dreams do come true! I’m sure you’re all familiar with the idea of a stuffed cookie but I bet you think it’s hard to make or that it requires special ingredients to achieve that ooey-gooey texture. Well I’m here to show you that it’s just one extra step and it is beyond worth it. These cookies start like any other double chocolate cookie and are not far off from my Best Ever Chocolate Cookies. The cookie itself is dense and brownie-like but in big and bold fashion it gets better from here.
After I mix up the chocolate cookie base, I spoon a generous amount of creamy Nutella into the center of each cookie. I cover up the Nutella with another layer of chocolate cookie to make sure it’s hidden in the center. After baking for only 12 minutes, these Nutella Lava Cookies are crisp on the outside and have a killer liquid-Nutella inside. There is really nothing more satisfying than sinking your teeth into one of these babies to reveal warm molten Nutella. You’re going to love them!
