This looks DELICIOUS. I'll need to try this someday! You should probably look at the original post -- she has these lovely animated gifs so you can see how she makes the cookies. :)

Nutella and Salted Caramel Stuffed Double Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

1/2 cup (110g) butter
1 1/2 cups (350g) light brown sugar
1/2 cup (55g) cocoa powder
2 eggs 1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 cups (260g) all-purpose flour
3.5 oz (100g) milk or dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup nutella
1x recipe for Salted caramel (see notes)


Instructions:

1. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) 
2. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter. Take off the heat and stir in the brown sugar, cocoa, eggs and salt until well combined. Add the baking soda and flour and stir until just combined, then stir in the chocolate chips. 
3. Refrigerate the dough while you make the caramel (see notes) 
4. Take 1 heaped tbsp of dough, use your finger make a large indentation the centre of the dough; fill the indentation with a small blob of nutella (like 1/2 tsp ish), and top it up with the still-warm salted caramel. Top with a flattened tablespoon of dough, and seal the edges. (See the original recipe for the gifs!)
5. Sprinkle with fleur de sel and bake for 8-10 minutes. 

Notes:
- you can find the salted caramel recipe here (don’t worry, it’ll lits take less than 15 minutes)
- alternatively, you can melt 1/2 cup of soft caramels with 2-3 tbsp of milk and use that to fill the cookies, or just put a rolo into the middle of the cookie with the nutella.


Can't wait to try it! (Or get someone else to make it for me! :D)
