Read more for all the details on Brownie Nutella Cookies.
It was Saturday around 930pm when my brain said “You know what it would be awesome? Brownie Nutella Cookies!” So in Lynn fashion, I stayed up late and recipe-tested Brownie Nutella Cookies and they did not disappoint!
These Brownie Nutella Cookies are super fudgy and not too sweet. The only thing that makes these super sweet is the Nutella but the good thing about them is that you can tailor how much you put on top!
This was a weird craving or thought for me because I have to admit, I’m not the biggest fan of chocolate! I definitely don’t go into a bakery and get an item that has chocolate chips or brownies/chocolate cake in general.
I’ve been seeing a lot of things online saying Nutella is overrated! How do you feel about it? Do you enjoy Nutella spread? I’d love to know in the comments below!
We are definitely a household that loves Nutella! I’m never dedicated for a spread and love to have different things on my toast! Cookie butter is also a big one for me!
PIN Brownie Nutella Cookies FOR LATER:
I actually made these the night before Mother’s Day which was perfect to bring to the picnic the following day with my in-laws. My family especially the little kiddos in my life are obsessed with Nutella! When I get to see my nieces and nephews again, I’ll make sure to bake them a fresh batch.
These Brownie Nutella Cookies are perfect for people who love a fudgy dessert and it’s the kind of fudgy that could get stuck in your teeth so make sure to do a bunch of teeth checks!
What’s your favorite cookie? I’d love to know in the comments below!
HERE IS HOW TO MAKE Brownie Nutella Cookies:
WHERE CAN I FIND THESE INGREDIENTS?
Love this one as everything was pretty much in my pantry which was great as I had this idea late at night! Everything is pretty standard if you are big into baking. If you’re a new baker like me, everything can be bought at your local grocery store!
WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS?
These are the ingredients for Brownie Nutella Cookies:
- Unsalted Butter
- Light Brown Sugar
- Granulated Sugar
- Light Brown Sugar
- Egg
- All-Purpose Flour
- Baking Soda
- Salt
- Instant Coffee
- Cocoa Powder
- Nutella
- Icing Sugar (Optional -To dust)
WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?
This recipe will require dry and wet ingredients in two separate bowls as well as a bowl to melt a bit of Nutella in the microwave. You’ll need a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and of course, an oven! Last thing and hopefully you already have these but you’ll need a Spatula to mix and if you have a cookie scoop, your cookies will be even and the perfect size but if not, then just use a spoon and scoop it out as evenly as you can.
CAN I SUB ANYTHING OUT?
I suggest you sub absolutely nothing out for this one! It is perfect the way it is. The instant coffee granules are probably the one ingredient that people would question so you can leave it out BUT it does make the brownie flavour richer! If you’d like to add 1 Cup of Chocolate Chips that would be okay but it will make the cookie really sweet! If you really really don’t like Nutella, honestly it’s up to you to sub any spread you’d like! Any nut butter, peanut butter, cookie butter would all be great!
WHAT DOES IT TASTE LIKE?
The Brownie cookie itself is really really good. It’s chewy and fudgy! I loved just eating them without the Nutella but the Nutella really set it together. I don’t have much to say for taste on this one as the title really says it all!
HOW LONG DOES IT KEEP FOR?
These cookies are honestly the best. I still have some in the fridge a week later. They are delicious cold but if you want to warm it up a soften it, just add one to a plate and heat it up for 10-20 seconds. I just kept them in an airtight container. You can freeze the unbaked batter as well for up to 1 month if you prefer making small fresh batches more often. As I brought these to a party, I baked them all at one time. When storing the cookies, you can’t stack them as the Nutella is really soft and will make the cookies stick together.
ANY OTHER NOTES?
No additional notes for these amazing Brownie Nutella Cookies! I really enjoyed baking these as a late-night treat. They were super easy and delicious! These cookies will make those who don’t have self-control with brownies weak!

- Slowly start to add in your dry ingredients into the wet ingredients bowl.
- Once everything is well combined together, portion out the cookies and place them on a parchment lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 8 minutes or until the edges are firm and allow them to cook completely on a wire rack.
- Microwave the Nutella in 20 second increments until it is smooth to spread on top.
- Take a cooled cookie and spread a thin layer of nutela on top. Repeat for each cookie.
- Dust with icing sugar on top and enjoy!
Beware because these are so good! I easily ate half a dozen immediately! I gave some to the family as well so it makes the perfect treat to give away. These are pretty much always a hit as people love Nutella and it’s nice because it’s peanut-free too.
Cookies are the perfect quick dessert and for gifts, gatherings, etc. They are also so beginner-friendly for someone like me who is still grasping baking as a hobby! Also, all the ingredients are so simple that you almost always have this in your house unless you’ve run out and have it on your next grocery list!
I look forward to baking more of these and sharing them with other people! I’m obsessed with baking more and more cookies in the future! If you follow me on Instagram, you’d know that I’m trying really hard to get better at baking and I’ve been trying my hand out at homemade bread!!
