Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Cookie Dough

  • 240 grams brown butter
  • 70 grams granulated sugar
  • 140 grams brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 300 grams all-purpose flour
  • 200 grams chocolate chips

For the Filling

  • 150 grams Nutella (use 100g for filling, reserve extra if desired for drizzling or serving)

Optional Decoration

  • 40 grams chocolate chips (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Brown the Butter: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, stirring constantly. Let it foam and cook until it turns golden brown and gives off a nutty aroma. Immediately transfer to a heatproof bowl and let it cool completely.
  2. Mix the Sugars and Eggs: In a large mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and eggs. Whisk vigorously for 2-3 minutes until the mixture is light and fluffy. This introduces air, leading to a better cookie texture.
  3. Add Vanilla and Cooled Brown Butter: Pour the cooled, browned butter and vanilla extract into the sugar mixture. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  4. Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Switch to a spatula and gently fold in the all-purpose flour. Mix only until no dry flour remains to keep the dough tender.
  5. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Add the chocolate chips and gently fold them into the dough for even distribution.
  6. Prepare the Pie Dish: Grease a pie dish with butter or non-stick spray. For easier removal, line the base and sides with parchment paper.
  7. Assemble the Cookie Pie: Press half the cookie dough evenly into the base and slightly up the sides of the prepared pie dish. Spread 100g Nutella over the base, covering the center. Gently spread the remaining dough over the Nutella, sealing the edges well. Sprinkle 40g chocolate chips over the top, if desired.
  8. Bake the Cookie Pie: Preheat your oven to 180ยฐC (356ยฐF). Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center remains slightly soft and gooey.
  9. Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of ice cream or extra chocolate sauce.

Notes

  • Measure Precisely: Use a kitchen scale for accurate ingredients and perfect texture.
  • Cool the Brown Butter: Ensure butter is cool before adding to sugars and eggs to avoid scrambling.
  • Donโ€™t Overmix the Dough: Only mix until ingredients are just combined for a soft, tender cookie.
  • Chill the Dough: For best results, refrigerate assembled dish for 20-30 minutes before baking (optional).
  • Layer the Nutella Carefully: Spread Nutella in the center without touching the edges to retain the gooey filling.
