Ingredients
Scale
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup Nutella (hazelnut spread)
Flaky sea salt, for topping
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9-inch pie plate or springform pan.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Press half of the cookie dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared pie plate.
Spread the Nutella evenly over the dough layer, leaving a 1-inch border around the edge. Do not let the Nutella touch the sides of the pan.
Crumble or gently press the remaining half of the cookie dough over the Nutella layer, covering it completely. Gently press the top layer into the bottom layer around the edges to seal.
Sprinkle the top generously with flaky sea salt.
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set but still slightly soft.
Let the cookie pie cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before slicing. This allows the Nutella filling to set slightly.
Serve warm for the best gooey center cookie pie experience.
Notes
To prevent the Nutella from baking out, make sure you seal the top layer of dough completely around the edges of the pie plate.
For an easier release, line the bottom and sides of your springform pan with parchment paper before greasing.
Serve this rich chocolate chip cookie bake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a truly decadent cookie dessert centerpiece.
