For the Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Variations

This recipe is wonderfully flexible! Feel free to get creative with your cookie fillings or add-ins.

  • Add nuts: Chopped walnuts or pecans can add a fantastic crunch to your cookies.
  • Try different spreads: If Nutella isn’t your favorite, swap it out for almond butter or any nut butter of your choice.

How to Make vegan marshmallows and Nutella Stuffed Chocolate Cookies

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

First things first—preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that our cookies bake evenly and become perfectly soft and chewy.

Step 2: Cream the Butters and Sugars

In a large bowl, beat together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy. This step is crucial because it incorporates air into the mixture, making your cookies light and fluffy.

Step 3: Add Eggs and Vanilla

Next, add in the eggs one at a time along with the vanilla extract. Mix until fully combined. The eggs help bind everything together while adding richness to our cookie dough.

Step 4: Combine Dry Ingredients

In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix this dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing—it helps keep those cookies tender!

Step 5: Fold in Chocolate Chips

Now for the fun part! Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips. They will melt slightly when baked, creating gooey pockets of chocolate throughout each cookie.

Step 6: Assemble Your Cookies

Scoop out about a tablespoon of dough and flatten it in your hand. Place a dollop of Nutella and a spoonful of vegan marshmallow fluff in the center then wrap the dough around it securely. Roll into balls and place on lined baking sheets.

Step 7: Bake!

Pop those cookie balls into your preheated oven for about 12 minutes. Watch as they puff up beautifully! Let them cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks—this makes them easier to handle while still warm.

And there you have it—the perfect vegan marshmallows and Nutella Stuffed Chocolate Cookies ready to be devoured! Enjoy every bite!

Pro Tips for Making vegan marshmallows and Nutella Stuffed Chocolate Cookies

Creating the perfect batch of these cookies is easier than you might think! Here are some pro tips to elevate your baking game.

  • Use room temperature ingredients: Starting with room temperature butter and eggs ensures a smoother batter, allowing for better incorporation of ingredients and a fluffier cookie texture.

  • Don’t overmix the dough: Mixing just until combined helps maintain the cookies’ tenderness. Overmixing can lead to dense cookies, so be gentle!

  • Chill the dough: Allowing your cookie dough to chill for at least 30 minutes before baking will help prevent spreading during baking, resulting in perfectly shaped cookies.

  • Watch the baking time: Every oven is different, so keep an eye on your cookies as they bake. They should be soft in the center when you take them out, as they’ll continue to cook on the baking sheet.

  • Experiment with fillings: Feel free to swap out Nutella or vegan marshmallow fluff for other plant-based spreads or fillings, like almond butter or coconut cream, to create unique flavor combinations.

How to Serve vegan marshmallows and Nutella Stuffed Chocolate Cookies

These indulgent cookies are not only delicious but also visually appealing! Here’s how you can present them beautifully.

Garnishes

  • Powdered sugar dusting: A light sprinkle of powdered sugar adds a touch of elegance and sweetness without overwhelming the flavor.
  • Chocolate drizzle: Melt some dairy-free chocolate and drizzle it over the cooled cookies for a decadent finish that makes them extra special.

Side Dishes

  • Vegan vanilla ice cream: The creaminess of vegan ice cream perfectly complements the rich chocolate flavor of these cookies, creating a delightful dessert experience.
  • Fresh berries: A side of mixed fresh berries adds a refreshing contrast to the richness of the cookies. Their natural sweetness balances out the flavors beautifully.
  • Coconut whipped cream: Light and fluffy coconut whipped cream offers a tropical twist that pairs wonderfully with chocolate desserts.
  • Nutty granola: A small bowl of crunchy granola adds texture and a nutty flavor that contrasts nicely with the soft cookies.

With these serving ideas and tips in mind, you’ll be ready to impress your friends and family with your delicious vegan marshmallows and Nutella stuffed chocolate cookies! Enjoy every bite!
