These cookies will MELT in your mouth.
Literally.
-I’m so hungry I could literally eat a house.
Wrong, unless it’s a gingerbread house or you happen to be a termite.
–These Nutella Stuffed Cookies literally melt in your mouth.
Correct!
Grammar lessons are much more exciting when dessert is involved, don’t you think?
(I think grammar is always exciting… I am a nerd.)
Nutella Stuffed Sugar Cookies
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup spelt, white, or Bob’s gf flour
- 1/4 tsp plus 1/8 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup sugar or xylitol (I like Wholesome Sweeteners Organic Sugar)
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2-4 tsp milk of choice
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
- 1/4 cup Healthy Nutella or chocolate spread of choice
Instructions
Grease a cookie tray, and set aside. In a large mixing bowl, combine first five ingredients and stir well. Add all remaining ingredients except the chocolate spread, and stir to form a dough. Especially if using the gf flour option, you may need to very slowly add a little extra milk of choice to form a non-crumbly dough. Transfer the dough to a large plastic bag and smush into a ball from inside the bag. Open the bag and break off pieces of the ball, rolling into 22-26 mini balls. Flatten the mini balls, then take only half of the flattened mini cookies and place a blob of chocolate spread in the middle of each. Place the other flattened discs on top, cinch the sides, then roll back up into balls. Chill in the fridge at least 1 hour, or freeze at least 20 minutes. (You can also freeze for up to a month and bake at a later date.) Preheat oven to 325 F. Bake 11 minutes – they will still look underdone when you remove from the oven, which is what you want. Allow the cookies to cool at least 10 minutes before even touching one, during which time they will firm up.

I could literally eat a whole batch of these. They look perfect.
Sugar cookies and Nutella, what an awesome sounding combination. Totally psyched to try them!
Back in college, I ate a ton of nutella. I went through it pretty quickly and I think that after that I stopped just due to the amount I ate previously. These do look really good though and who can resist a good cookie?
Mmmm Nutella! Can’t go wrong with that! I love cookies like these that have a surprise inside 😀 x
These look amazing and so perfect in a bite size!
My husband would go crazy for these!
I heard a funny line: “Misuse of ‘literally’ makes me figuratively insane.”
I love grammar.
Actually, if you want to get literal here you’d have to say “dissolve.” At the temperature and pressure achievable in the human mouth these cookies are unlikely to phase change into a liquid form. Science > Grammar. IMHO. 😉
This literally made me laugh 🙂
Grammar isn’t math which therefore makes it fun. Math is the WORST. It sounds too much like meth, and therefore should be outlawed!
Ya can’t go wrong with Nutella.
Nutella-stuffed-anything is totally welcome in my house! Looking up your healthy nutella recipe; can’t wait to make it!
A tip for filling cookies with Nutella: Pipe little dots of Nutella on a baking sheet and pop in the freezer. You’ll have little discs of frozen Nutella that are much easier to place in the middle of your cookie dough. 🙂
Love your recipes Katie!
That’s such a great idea!!
These cookies might just be my next favorite cookies. I like anything that has Nutella in it, but in cookies it is basically the best thing.
OH! I also have to point out how I think it’s hilariously ironic how today is national “Chocolate Covered Anything” day, yet in this recipe, the CHOCOLATE is being covered! WOAH
These look and sound amazing, yum!

Love these…I make something similar (they’re actually called “Baci” cookies). Funny cause I just made sugar cookies the other day with peanut butter. I’m all about sugar cookies right now, lol! The next time I make them I’m going to do chai and then lemon chocolate chip 😉
