I’ve been making these cookies ever since I discovered them on Butter Baking about three years ago, probably on Pinterest, and I’m still obsessed with them.

So how can you whip ’em up?

Glad you asked! Here are the deets…

3-INGREDIENT NUTELLA STUFFED NUTELLA COOKIES

INGREDIENTS
{ makes ~ 50-52 cookies }

+ 3 cups Nutella (2 cups for dough + 1 cup, refrigerated, for stuffing)
+ 2 cups 100% white whole wheat flour (I like to use Baker Josef’s from Trader Joe’s)
+ 2 organic eggs

+ Optional—Sprinkles for decoration (I used Christmas-colored sprinkles so it’d be more festive. If I make these for Valentine’s Day I use heart-shaped sprinkles ; ) Haha—so easy to mix it up!)

(NOTE ⇢ You’ll also need baking/parchment paper. I forgot to get these when I bought the Nutella & had to make another trip to the store (boo!), so I’m telling you now, so hopefully you can avoid this! ; ))

DIRECTIONS

+ Preheat oven to 350° F and line two trays with baking/parchment paper.

+ In a large bowl, mix together two cups Nutella and eggs. Add flour and stir until fully blended. The dough should be pretty thick.

+ Scoop out a teaspoon of dough (I actually use a teaspoon, it makes it easier to get a round shape) and flatten it in your palm. Place on lined baking tray.
+ Put a teaspoon of cold Nutella in center of cookie.
+ Scoop out another teaspoon of dough, flatten it in your palm, place it over the Nutella and press the edges of the two cookies together, sealing them like ravioli. I like to stretch out the top cookie a little more than the bottom cookie so I get cracks on the top (see snapchats below) because it makes it easier for the sprinkles to stick to it.

+ Repeat until you’ve used all the cookie dough. (Tip ⇢ To save time, I fill the entire tray with the bottom cookies, place a teaspoon of cold Nutella on each cookie, then add the top cookies.)

+ Bake for 6 minutes. Makes ~ 50-52 cookies. MMMMmmmm!!

If you have extra dough, or want to mix it up a bit you can also make Christmas-themed/shaped cookies, like these (I made these for my niece & nephew):
