Bake these decadent Nutella Hot Cocoa Cookies for a rich, chocolatey treat perfect for family holiday baking. They bring the warmth of hot cocoa and the deliciousness of Nutella into one easy cookie.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup Nutella (hazelnut spread)
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup mini marshmallows (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract and Nutella until just combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. The edges should be set, but the centers will look slightly soft.
  8. If using marshmallows, press a few gently onto the top of each cookie during the last minute of baking.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For an extra rich flavor, use high-quality cocoa powder.
  • You can chill the dough for 30 minutes before scooping if your kitchen is warm.
  • Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature.
