3-Ingredient Nutella Cookies

Step 1

Set the oven to 350°F and wait until the indicator light or beep tells you it has finished heating, about 10 minutes.

Step 2

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper by laying a sheet of parchment across the entire surface and pressing it flat.

Step 3

Pour 1 cup Nutella into a medium mixing bowl and break the egg into the bowl on top of the Nutella.

Step 4

Use a fork to beat the egg and Nutella together, stirring in the same direction for about 30 seconds until the mixture is uniform and no egg-white streaks remain.

Step 5

Add 0.5 cup flour to the bowl and stir with the fork until you see no dry flour specks, about 20 seconds; the batter will be thick and glossy.

Step 6

Drop rounded tablespoon-sized portions of batter onto the parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart—you should have roughly 12 cookies.

Step 7

Slide the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until the edges look set and slightly darker than the center but the top still appears a little soft.

Step 8

Remove the baking sheet from the oven using an oven mitt and set it on a heat-safe surface to cool for 5 minutes—the cookies will firm up as they cool.

Step 9

Once cool enough to touch, use a wide metal spatula to lift each cookie from the parchment and transfer to a serving plate or cooling rack.
