Steps

Tap anything to check it off as you go.

1. 1Start by freezing your Nutella bites. Grab a plate and a piece of parchment paper.
2. 2Scoop 1/2 tablespoon of nutella on the parchement paper for each cookie. ( I only filled half of my cookies with Nutella, so there was an option of both) Make as many Nutella bites as you want, to fill your cookies.
3. 3Place the Nutella bites in the freezer for at least 15 minutes. Leave the bites in the freezer until dough is prepared and rolled into balls.
4. 4Move one of your oven racks to the middle-lower half. Preheat to 325 degrees F.
5. 5Line a cookie sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
6. 6Melt the butter in a seperate bowl, and let cool for 5 minutes.
7. 7In a bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
8. 8Once the butter is cooled,add the brown sugar and white sugar. Use a hand or stand mixer to cream together. ( about 1-;2 minutes) ";
9. 9Add the egg, extra yolk and vanilla to the creamed butter and sugar. Mix until just combined.
10. 10Add your flour mixture in three batches. Mixing on a low speed.
11. 11Fold in chocolate chips by hand.
12. 12Roll the dough into balls. ( use 2 tablespoons of dough for each ball)
13. 13Place dough balls on a lined cookie sheet, making sure they are spaced 2 inches apart.
14. 14Use a spoon and make a dent in each ball of dough for the Nutella bites. ( see picture below)
15. 15Place Nutella bites in the dents and roll the dough around the nutella bites. ( so no Nutella is showing)
16. 16Bake cookies for 15-18 minutes. (16 was perfect for me)
