This Nutella Cookie Pie is not here to behave. It is thick, gooey, unapologetically rich, and basically dares you to pretend you are only having one slice. Crisp golden edges, a soft and chewy centre, and a generous layer of warm Nutella hiding inside like the best kind of secret.

It bakes up like a cookie, slices like a pie, and eats like a full dessert moment. Grab a spoon, add ice cream if you are feeling fancy, and accept the fact that this is not a quiet, polite dessert. It is loud, indulgent, and absolutely worth it.

This Nutella Cookie Pie works because the cookie dough is thick enough to hold everything together while still staying soft right where it counts. You get crisp edges that bake up beautifully, with a centre that stays gooey and rich instead of dry or crumbly.

That layer of Nutella in the middle is what turns this into a proper nutella stuffed cookie pie. It melts just enough as it bakes, creating a warm, silky centre that makes every slice feel like a cookie with Nutella filling you actually want to savour.

Let’s Talk Ingredients (Nothing Fancy, Just Smart)

This Nutella Cookie Pie is made with simple pantry staples and a generous scoop of Nutella for that gooey center we all love, I even celebrate World Nutella day with a collection of the best recipes . Here are a few of the key ingredients that make this nutella stuffed cookie pie truly special:

  • Butter: Softened butter gives the dough richness and helps create those golden edges with a soft, chewy centre.
  • Brown Sugar: Adds moisture and that irresistible chew that keeps the cookie thick instead of cakey.
  • Nutella: The star of the show, creating that molten centre that turns this into a nutella cookie cake rather than a regular cookie.
  • Chocolate Chips: Extra chocolate throughout the dough because restraint has no place here.

Note: Please see recipe card at the bottom for full ingredients list with measurements.

Feeling Extra? Here Are Some Fun Add Ins

The base recipe is already doing a lot, but if you feel like playing around, these add ins and swaps slide right in without causing chaos.

  • Dark Chocolate Chips: Perfect if you love a deeper chocolate flavour with less sweetness.
  • Chopped Hazelnuts: Add crunch and lean fully into that chocolate hazelnut situation.
  • Peanut Butter: A great swap if Nutella is not your thing or you are feeling nostalgic.
  • Gluten Free Flour: A good cup for cup blend works well and keeps the texture on point.

  1. Bake and Cool : Bake for 25–30 minutes for a gooey Nutella Cookie Pie . For a firmer texture, cover with foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

For a cozy, balanced meal, serve this Nutella Cookie Pie after something savory and hearty. Try Creamy Beef Stroganoff With Mushrooms , tender beef in a rich, creamy sauce that pairs beautifully with the sweet, gooey dessert.Or go bold with Hearty Creole Jambalaya , loaded with sausage, shrimp, and spices. Both dishes bring comfort and flavor that make this nutella stuffed cookie pie the perfect finish. For an extra treat, enjoy a warm mug of my Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate on the side, its creamy sweetness matching the rich Nutella perfectly.

  • If your dough feels too soft, chill it briefly. This helps keep the layers defined and stops spreading.
  • Warm the Nutella just enough to spread easily. Too hot and it will melt straight into the dough instead of staying gloriously thick.
  • Pull the cookie pie out while the centre still looks slightly underdone. It will finish setting as it cools and stay gooey.
  • Let it rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing unless you enjoy molten cookie chaos. No judgement either way.

To keep the cookie with Nutella filling gooey, reheat slices in the microwave for about 15–20 seconds. You can also warm the whole pie in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 10–15 minutes.

Absolutely. A pie dish works just as well as a cast iron skillet. The edges might be slightly softer, but the Nutella cookie pie will still bake up beautifully.

Yes! If you prefer, you can use a refined sugar-free Nutella alternative or your favorite chocolate-hazelnut spread.
