Ingredients
  

Chocolate Cookie Dough
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 0.5 cup brown sugar packed
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg large, room temperature
  • 1.5 tsp vanilla extract
Gooey Filling
  • 0.5 cup Nutella or any chocolate hazelnut spread
  • 0.5 cup Marshmallow fluff marshmallow creme

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Baking sheet
  • Wire rack
  • Hand mixer or stand mixer

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
  4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, beating until well combined.
  5. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients on low speed just until no streaks of flour remain. Do not overmix.
  6. Scoop dough into 1.5 tablespoon-sized balls, place on baking sheets 2 inches apart, and flatten slightly into thick discs.
  7. Bake for 9-11 minutes until the edges are set but the centers are still very soft. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  8. Match cookies into pairs. Spread marshmallow fluff on the bottom of one cookie, and Nutella on the bottom of its pair.
  9. Gently press the two halves together to create a sandwich. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.

Notes

Ensure cookies are completely cool before filling, otherwise the marshmallow fluff and Nutella will melt and run off.
