Delight in these rich Nutella Marshmallow Cookies featuring a soft cocoa cookie exterior with a luscious Nutella and marshmallow fluff filling that creates a gooey, chocolatey surprise in every bite.

Ingredients

Scale

For the cookies:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

For the filling:

  • ½ cup Nutella
  • ½ cup marshmallow fluff (or marshmallow creme)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cookie Dough: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  2. Assemble the Cookies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop out about 2 tablespoons of dough and flatten it slightly in your hand. Place 1 teaspoon of Nutella in the center of the dough, followed by 1 teaspoon of marshmallow fluff on top of the Nutella. Press the edges gently to partially seal them, leaving a small gap to allow the marshmallow to puff out slightly while baking. Take another 1 tablespoon of dough, flatten it, and place it on top, sealing the edges around the filling. Repeat this process for the remaining dough, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart on the baking sheets.
  3. Bake the Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are slightly cracked on top. The marshmallow fluff will spread into a smooth, gooey layer inside the cookie as it bakes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • Chilling the dough helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much during baking and makes them easier to shape.
  • You can substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips with dark or milk chocolate chips based on preference.
  • Ensure the sealing edges are pressed gently but securely to avoid filling leakage while baking.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or freeze for longer storage.
