Directions
1. To make the Nutella stuffed cookie cups: Preheat your oven to 320°F (160ºC) and lightly butter a 6-cup standard muffin pan (or a 12-cups mini muffins pan).
2. Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Beat butter and sugar in a large bowl at medium speed until creamy; add in the whole egg and vanilla and mix until combined. Reduce speed to low and add the flour mixture; beat just until incorporated. Finally, fold in chocolate chips using a spatula.
3. Use a medium cookie scoop to place a scoop of cookie dough into each muffin cup. Press the dough with your fingers to line the bottom and edges of the cups. Add a teaspoon of Nutella in the bottom. Add a second scoop of cookie dough, a little smaller and flattened, over the Nutella, pressing gently on the edges to cover. Top with more chocolate chips if you like, pressing gently.
4. Bake the cookie cups for 20 to 25 minutes, until the tops and edges are set, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few crumbs. Let cool the cookie cups in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
5. Gently loosen the Nutella stuffed cookie cups from the muffin pan and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy! ❤️
