Nutella Chocolate Chip Cookies


½ cup butter, softened
¾ cup light brown sugar
½ cup sugar
1 large egg + 1 egg yolk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 cup Nutella, divided in half
2 1/3 cups flour
1¼ tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cornstarch
½ tsp. salt
1¼ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
sea salt, to taste


Preheat oven to 350F. Line two large baking sheets with baking mats. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the butter for 1 minute on medium speed until completely smooth and creamy. Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar and beat on medium-high speed until fluffy and light in color. Beat in egg, egg yolk, and vanilla on high speed until combined. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. Beat in ¼ cup of Nutella until combined.

Whisk the flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt together in a large bowl. On low speed, slowly mix into the wet ingredients until combined. Add chocolate chips and mix on low for about 5-10 seconds until evenly disbursed. Turn the mixer off and add the remaining Nutella. Beat for 5-10 seconds so the Nutella streaks through the cookie dough and is not fully mixed.

Scoop dough into about Tbsp. of dough each, into balls.

Bake the cookies for 10 minutes, until slightly golden brown around the edges.  

Let cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the cookie sheet. Finish each with a sprinkle with sea salt. Transfer cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely.
