Dry Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Filling
- 3/4 cup Nutella (chocolate-hazelnut spread)
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
- Prepare Your Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: Using a mixer or sturdy spoon, cream the softened unsalted butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar until the mixture turns pale and fluffy, ensuring a tender, chewy cookie crust.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time until fully incorporated, then stir in the vanilla extract to add moisture and rich flavor to the dough.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, folding gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the texture tender.
- Assemble the Pie: Press half of the cookie dough into a greased pie dish as the bottom layer. Spread an even layer of Nutella over the dough. Optionally, sprinkle chocolate chips for extra texture. Top with the remaining cookie dough, covering the Nutella completely.
- Bake to Perfection: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set but still soft. Allow to cool slightly to let the filling settle before slicing.
Notes
- Use room temperature butter and eggs for smooth dough.
- Do not overbake; edges should be lightly golden.
- Slightly warm Nutella before spreading for easier application.
- Line pie dish with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Let pie cool 10-15 minutes before slicing for clean slices.
