Tips and Recommendations:
- To make the sandwich cookies even more special, you can roll the edges in sprinkles, crushed nuts, or mini chocolate chips after assembling them with Nutella.
- You can adjust the thickness of the cookies to your liking. Thicker cookies will be chewier, while thinner ones will be crispier.
- If you want to add a bit of crunch to your cookies, consider mixing finely chopped hazelnuts into the Nutella before spreading it on the cookies.
- Store the Nutella Sandwich Cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. You can also refrigerate them to keep them fresh for longer.
- These cookies are a delightful addition to holiday cookie trays, bake sales, or as a sweet treat for any occasion. Enjoy the rich, chocolatey goodness!

Instructions
Prepare the Chocolate Cookie Dough:
-
1. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
-
2. In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
-
3. Beat in the large egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
-
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft cookie dough forms.
-
5. Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a disk. Wrap them in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the Oven:
-
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Shape and Bake the Cookies:
-
1. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one of the chilled cookie dough disks to about 1/4-inch thickness.
-
2. Use a round cookie cutter or a glass to cut out cookie rounds. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
-
3. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are set. They should be slightly soft in the center. Be careful not to overbake.
-
4. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
5. Repeat the rolling and baking process with the remaining cookie dough.
Assemble the Nutella Sandwich Cookies:
-
1. Once the cookies are completely cooled, spread a generous dollop of Nutella hazelnut spread onto the bottom side of one cookie.
-
2. Gently press another cookie (bottom side down) onto the Nutella, creating a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining cookies.

1. Serve your Nutella Sandwich Cookies and enjoy!
