How To Make Salted Rolo and Nutella Stuffed Double Chocolate Cookies
- Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and keep it aside.
- In the large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside for now.
- In another bowl, beat the butter until it is creamy. Then, add the sugar and beat until the mixture is fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and then the vanilla extract.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients into the butter mixture and mix until just combined. Then, fold in the chocolate chips.
- Using your hands, take two tablespoons of cookie dough and flatten it. Place a Rolo and a teaspoon of Nutella in the center, and then roll the dough back into a ball, making sure the Rolo and Nutella are completely covered. Repeat this process with the rest of the dough.
- Bake the cookies for about 10 minutes, or until the edges are set. Remove the cookies from the oven, sprinkle a little sea salt on top, and let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy these sweet and salty delights wholeheartedly!
