Nutella Sugar Cookies
This post may contain affiliate links. See my disclosure policy.

After making those delicious chewy Nutella cookies, I had this sudden urge to make a Nutella sugar cookie because the chewy cookies looked a little bit like sugar cookies.

I played around with some sugar recipes. I wanted to make these chewier and flatter, so I used some brown sugar and a lot of Nutella.
I loved how perfectly round and flat these cookies were after baking. They were puffy initially, but sank back down after they cooled. It was just the look I was going for.
The cookies were chewy, sweet, with a light taste of Nutella.

can cookie cutters be used for some nutella cookie recipe because i would love to give different shapes to them for the kids….usually cookie cutters cant be used with soft dough recipies.
I’m actually not sure. I’ve never tried to roll out this dough so I don’t know if it rolls out well. If you do try it and it works, please let me know!
these look AH-mazing! now i just have to figure out how to turn them into a gluten free version!
Ah, sorry I can’t help you there. I’m not very good with gluten free baking.
Those sound way tasty! I want to try them with both Nutella and Biscoff (my new spread obsession).
I’ve been really curious about trying Biscoff for a while now. After this comment, I just bought some at Amazon!
I bet my little girl would love to use her new set of cookie cutters for this recipe…The eating, we both will definitely enjoy! Thanks for sharing a great cookie recipe.
I’m not sure if this recipe would work with cookie cutter. It’s more of a drop cookie recipe, but you could try.
I’m showing your website to ALL my friends. If I could I’d even make fliers and give them out to random people because every recipe you make is so good. <3 keep up the wonderful work.
Aw, that’s so nice of you to say! Thanks!
Mmmm! I’m convinced – anything made with a cup of Nutella has got to be good!
I agree =)
As if sugar cookies weren’t good enough on their own, adding Nutella makes them irresistible! I can’t wait to try this recipe!
I agree!
Very nice! i have so much Nutella at home (Costco coupon) waiting to be used! love the look of these cookies too. i don’t really like sugar cookies but if Nutella is in them, that’s a different story.
They don’t taste as much like sugar cookies with the addition of Nutella. I hope you like them!
1 cup of nutella! YES! These cookies sound like winner so me 🙂
Yeah I was worried. But I kept adding more to the dough and it seemed okay. And as justification, it does make a lot of cookies.
Yum! Better stock up on Nutella. Maybe I will want to buy enough Nutella to justify renewing the Costco membership…
Haha. And there’s free samples. and bacon. =)
Yet another Kirbie recipe to clip! I don’t know which one to try first! =)
Try them all! =)
Wow these look great!
I couldn’t decide which one I like better.This one or the chewy chocolate chip Nutella cookies. Both are good!
