Ingredients

Cookie Dough

  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/3 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips (divided)

Filling

  • 1/2 cup Nutella, melted

Instructions

  1. Prepare the skillet: Preheat your oven to 350° F (175°C). Line a 9-inch cast iron skillet or pie dish with baking/parchment paper and set it aside for easy removal and cleanup.
  2. Make the cookie dough: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the softened butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture becomes light and creamy. Add in the egg and whisk until well incorporated. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Gently fold in half of the chocolate chips.
  3. Assemble the bottom layer: Spoon half of the cookie dough into the prepared skillet and spread it evenly, pressing it gently to cover the base.
  4. Prepare the Nutella filling: Melt the Nutella in the microwave for about 30 seconds until it becomes thinner and more spreadable. Evenly spread the melted Nutella over the cookie dough layer, keeping about 1 inch of space from the edges.
  5. Top the cookie: Spoon the remaining cookie dough over the Nutella layer, smoothing the surface with the back of a metal spoon or your fingers to cover completely. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips evenly over the top.
  6. Bake the skillet cookie: Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes for a gooey center. For a more set cookie, cover the skillet loosely with aluminum foil after 30 minutes and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
  7. Cool and serve: Remove the skillet from the oven and let the cookie cool for about 10 minutes before slicing it into 16 portions. Serve warm for the best gooey experience.

Notes

  • Warm Nutella in the microwave for 30-60 seconds until it is runnier instead of just spreadable; this helps to spread it evenly over the cookie dough.
  • You can use a pie dish as an alternative to cast iron skillet for baking.
  • For a firmer cookie, bake longer after covering with foil.
  • Ensure not to overmix the dough once the dry ingredients are added to keep the cookie tender.
  • Use parchment paper to make it easier to remove the cookie from the skillet.
