How to Make the Recipe

Now, let’s get to the fun part—making these cookies! Follow these simple steps:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the Nutella, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix until well combined.
Add the egg and mix until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the Nutella mixture, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some of my favorite tips to ensure your cookies turn out perfectly:

For an extra chocolatey flavor, try adding a mix of chocolate chips and chunks.
Don’t overbake! The cookies will continue to cook on the baking sheet after you take them out of the oven.
If you want to make these cookies even more indulgent, drizzle some melted chocolate on top once they’ve cooled.
Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate chips, like white chocolate or peanut butter chips!

How to Serve

These Cookies de Nutella e Chocolate are perfect for any occasion! Here are some serving suggestions:

Serve them warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delicious dessert.
Pair them with a glass of cold milk or a warm cup of coffee for a delightful afternoon treat.
Bring them to your next family gathering or potluck, and watch them disappear!
For a fun twist, sandwich two cookies with a layer of Nutella or frosting in between.

Make Ahead and Storage

If you want to prepare these cookies in advance, you can! Here’s how:

Prepare the cookie dough and scoop it onto the baking sheet. Instead of baking, cover the sheet with plastic wrap and freeze for up to 2 months.
When you’re ready to bake, simply preheat the oven and bake the frozen cookies for an extra minute or two.
Store baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage.
