Ingredients:
- 240g salted butter, softened
- 140g light brown sugar
- 70g caster sugar
- 2 eggs, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 350g plain flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- Chocolate chips (amount as desired)
- Nutella (amount as desired)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F).
- Prepare the Cookie Dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the softened butter, light brown sugar, and caster sugar until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and whisk until fully incorporated and creamy.
- Fold in the plain flour and baking soda, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
- Assemble the Skillet:
- Evenly press half of the cookie dough into the bottom of a well-greased skillet, creating an even layer.
- Spread a generous layer of Nutella over the cookie dough base.
- Top with the remaining cookie dough, pressing it evenly over the Nutella layer.
- For extra chocolatey goodness, sprinkle additional chocolate chips on top.
- Bake the Cookie Skillet:
- Bake the skillet in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes. Adjust the baking time according to your preference for gooeyness—less time for a gooier center, more time for a firmer cookie.
- Once baked, remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve the Nutella-Stuffed Cookie Skillet warm for a soft, gooey treat, or let it cool completely for a firmer texture.
- Pair with a scoop of ice cream or enjoy on its own.
Enjoy!
