Cocoa Hazelnut Stuffed Cookies Recipes

HAZELNUT COCOA COOKIES

Steps:

• Beat the butter, chocolate-hazelnut spread, white sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Blend the whole egg into the butter mixture. Beat in the egg yolk and vanilla.
• In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix the dry mixture into the egg and sugar mixture about 1/3 at a time until all the flour is incorporated. Gather the dough into a ball and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Roll dough into large balls (about the size of a golf ball) and place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake until cookie is slightly firm on the outside, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool cookies on pans before removing.

COCOA-HAZELNUT STUFFED COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, stir together cookie mix, melted butter, egg and 1 tablespoon of the milk; set aside.
• In small bowl, mix hazelnut spread and powdered sugar until well blended. Roll half of hazelnut mixture into 5 balls, using about 1 tablespoon mixture per ball.
• For each cookie, press 1/4 cup cookie dough with hands until flat; make small well in center of dough. Place hazelnut ball in well. Seal cookie dough around hazelnut ball, sealing mixture completely inside. Place on ungreased large cookie sheet.
• Bake 11 to 13 minutes or just until edges of cookies are golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack.
• Into remaining half of hazelnut mixture, stir enough remaining milk until thin icing forms. Drizzle icing over top of cooled cookies; sprinkle with chopped peanuts. Let icing set before serving.

CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT STUFFED COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325F and let Cookie Dough come to room temperature so it becomes soft to touch.
• Scoop tablespoonfuls of the chocolate hazelnut spread onto the baking pan lined with parchment paper.
• Freeze tray for at least 30 minutes.
• Take 1 ½ portions of cookie dough and wrap it around one frozen chocolate hazelnut spread disc.
• Reroll into a ball and place onto a parchment lined baking pan.
• Repeat this step until all the cookies are made.
• Bake for 13-16 minutes. Since ovens vary, check at the shortest time and add time as needed.
• Cool on a wire baking rack for at least 10 minutes before indulging. Enjoy!

CHOCOLATE-FILLED HAZELNUT COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Grind the nuts with confectioners' sugar until powdery (do not make into a paste).
• Blend together the butter, lemon zest, salt, and nut mixture in a large bowl with a spatula or spoon until creamy. Add the flour and cocoa powder, stirring until incorporated. Do not overwork the dough.
• Roll level 1/2 teaspoons of dough into tiny balls and arrange 1-inch apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake 1 sheet at a time until lightly crisped, about 12 minutes. Slide the parchment paper with the baked cookies onto a rack to cool.
• In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate in the microwave.
• Spoon a mound, about 1/8 teaspoon, of melted chocolate onto the flat side of a cookie then top with the flat side of another cookie to make a "sandwich." Repeat.
• Plain cookies can be baked and cooled 1 week ahead and kept at room temperature in an airtight container. Fill when ready to serve.

CHOCOLATE-HAZELNUT STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter begins to bubble it will begin to brown; lower the heat and allow to slowly brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter, dark-brown sugar and granulated sugar. Beat until incorporated. (At this point, the butter and sugar will look separated and broken, but that's ok!) Beat in the vanilla, egg, egg yolk and yogurt.
• In medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt. Lower the speed on the mixer to low. Gradually add in the dry ingredients, followed by the bittersweet and milk chocolate chips. Mix until everything is fully incorporated.
• Begin scooping the dough by tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets. Once you have 12 tablespoons of dough on each cookie sheet, get the chocolate-hazelnut spread! Make an indentation in each cookie where the chocolate-hazelnut spread will live. Carefully scoop 1 heaping teaspoon of spread into each indentation.
• Scoop 1 tablespoon of the remaining cookie dough and place it on top of the chocolate hazelnut spread, creating a dome over the spread. (You want to surround the spread completely with dough so it doesn't ooze out during baking.) Repeat until all cookies are covered. Sprinkle each cookie with sea salt.
• You can freeze the cookies for up to a month at this point (freeze them on the baking sheet, and when solid transfer them to zip-close freezer-proof bags), or bake them right away. Bake the cookies until slightly browned on the edges (the tops may be doughy), about 10 to 12 minutes. The cookies may look underdone, but don't worry, they will continue to cook once you remove them from the oven. Cool the cookies on the pan.

SALTED COCOA-HAZELNUT COOKIES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt.
• In another bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together butter and sugar on medium-high until the mixture is superlight, fluffy and pale, about 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add in the eggs, 1 at a time, and vanilla extract, and beat until everything is well combined, about 2 minutes.
• Add dry ingredients all at once, and mix on low until almost incorporated. Add hazelnuts, and continue to mix until just fully incorporated.
• Scrape dough out of mixer, and divide it into 2 pieces onto cling wrap. Wrap each piece in cling wrap and roll them into logs about 1 1/2 to 2 inches in diameter, and 12 inches long.
• Refrigerate the logs at least 2 hours, or up to 5 days.
• Heat oven to 325 degrees.
• Brush the outside of each log of dough with egg wash. Sprinkle sanding sugar (Demerara or regular granulated sugar also work here) onto a piece of parchment paper, and roll the logs in it. Slice log crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
• Place dough slices on parchment-lined baking sheets 1 inch apart, and sprinkle with flaky salt. Bake until the edges are just set and cookies are baked through (difficult to tell with chocolate cookies, but the center should feel set when pressed gently), 12 to 15 minutes.

STUFFED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and toast for about 5 minutes until it turns brown and smells nutty. Pour the brown butter into a large bowl. Let sit for 30 minutes to cool before starting to make the dough.
• To the bowl with the cooled butter, add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, and yogurt. Using an electric hand mixer or stand mixer, beat for 2-3 minutes until fluffy.
• Add the egg and egg yolk and beat again until fluffy and well-combined.
• In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Sift ⅓ of the dry ingredients at a time into the wet ingredients. Beat just until incorporated, then scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula between each addition. Make sure not to overmix.
• Add the chocolate chips and mini chocolate chips to the dough and gently fold just to incorporate. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours. You can also store the stuffings in the fridge so they're easier to work with later.
• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Line a baking sheet (or 2) with parchment paper.
• Using an ice cream scooper, scoop out 3 tablespoons of chilled dough and flatten out into a ¼-inch (6 mm) thick circle.
• Add 1 tablespoon of your stuffing of choice, such as caramel, cookie butter, chocolate hazelnut spread, or peanut butter, to the center of the dough round, and fold the edges of the dough around the stuffing. Seal tightly and roll into a ball. Repeat with the rest of the dough and stuffings.
• To the outside of the cookie dough balls, add your choice of toppings, such as mini marshmallows, chopped candy bar, chocolate chips, crushed chocolate sandwich cookies, white chocolate chips, rainbow sprinkles, pretzel pieces, or crushed potato chips. Press the toppings firmly into the dough, so they don't fall off. Repeat with the remaining stuffed cookie dough balls.
• Place the stuffed and decorated cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet approximately 3 inches (7 cm) apart, so the cookies don't spread into one another. You may need to use 2 baking sheets.
• Bake for 11-14 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown and evenly spread.
• Cool on a cooling rack for 10 minutes before devouring!
• Enjoy!

CHOCOLATE-HAZELNUT SPREAD COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine the graham cracker crumbs, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl; add the egg, vanilla, and chocolate-hazelnut spread and mix by hand until well blended. Form the mixture into 1 1/2-inch balls and place on a baking sheet 2 inches apart.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crispy on the outside, 8 to 10 minutes. Allow to rest on cookie sheet a few minutes before moving to a wire rack to cool.

HAZELNUT-CRUSTED CHOCOLATE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Cookies: In a bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together butter and egg. Add brown sugar, and whisk to combine. Gradually add to flour mixture and stir with a spatula until liquid is absorbed. Transfer to a sheet of plastic wrap.
• Divide dough into thirds; roll out each portion 1/16-inch thick on a nonstick baking mat, topped with plastic wrap. Stack on a baking sheet, and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Using a 2-inch cookie cutter, cut dough into rounds; transfer to parchment-lined baking sheets. Reroll scraps once and cut more rounds, to make a total of 72 cookies. (If dough becomes soft, freeze until firm.) Bake cookies, rotating sheets halfway through, until firm and fragrant, 9 to 10 minutes. Transfer sheets to wire racks and let cool completely.
• Filling: In a large bowl, beat butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla, and salt, starting on low speed, then increasing to high for 2 minutes, scraping down sides of bowl occasionally. Stir in melted chocolate to combine.
• Spread 2 tablespoons filling each on half of cookies, then sandwich with remaining cookies. Roll edges in chopped hazelnuts to adhere. Chill overnight before serving. (Assembled cookies can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 2 days.)
