When it comes to incorporating the dry ingredients into the wet ones for your Nutella Delight Surprise Cookies, mastering the folding technique is crucial. Begin by adding your dry mixture, which includes flour, baking soda, and salt, into the wet mixture of butter, sugars, and eggs. Instead of stirring vigorously, which can lead to overmixing and a tough cookie, use a spatula to gently fold the ingredients together.

Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup Nutella (or more for a gooier center)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

      Cream the Butters and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).

        Add Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract into the butter-sugar mixture until well combined.

          Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.

            Chill the Dough: For best results, chill the cookie dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. This helps prevent the cookies from spreading too much.

              Prepare Nutella Filling: While the dough chills, place small dollops (about 1 teaspoon each) of Nutella on a plate and freeze for about 15-20 minutes. This will make it easier to stuff into the cookies.

                Assemble Cookies: Take about 1-2 tablespoons of cookie dough and flatten it in your palm. Place a frozen dollop of Nutella in the center, then gather the dough around it and roll it into a ball. Ensure the Nutella is fully enclosed.

                  Bake: Place the cookie balls on the prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center looks slightly soft.

                    Cool and Enjoy: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. The Nutella center will be gooey and delicious!
