Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 1 heaping tbsp dairy-free nocciolata: This rich chocolate-hazelnut spread provides a creamy, indulgent filling. If you can’t find nocciolata, any other dairy-free hazelnut spread works great!

  • 1-2 vegan chocolate crème-filled cookies: These create delicious chunks within your cookie. You can substitute with any chocolate cookie if you’re looking for something different.

  • 1 tbsp (24 g) melted vegan butter: Adds moisture and richness to the cookie dough. Use coconut oil for a non-dairy alternative.

  • 1 tsp dairy-free yogurt: This keeps the dough tender; apple sauce could be used in a pinch.

  • 1 1/2 tbsp granulated sugar: Sweetens your cookie beautifully. You can swap it with coconut sugar for a healthier option.

  • 1 tbsp packed brown sugar: This helps achieve that chewy texture. Maple sugar can substitute if needed.

  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract: Enhances all the flavors, making every bite taste so much better.

  • 3 tbsp (33 g) all-purpose flour or gluten-free 1:1 baking flour: The base of your cookie; feel free to use almond flour for a nutty twist.

  • 1 tbsp (10 g) Dutch-process cocoa powder: Deepens the chocolate flavor. Regular cocoa powder can be used if needed.

  • 1/8 tsp baking soda: Provides a little lift to your cookie.

  • Pinch of sea salt: Balances the sweetness and enhances the flavors.

  • 2 tbsp+ vegan chocolate chips and/or chopped dark chocolate: For added gooeyness and chocolatey goodness.

How to Make Single Serve Chocolate Sandwich Cookie Filled with Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Meanwhile, place a piece of parchment on a small plate and add your dairy-free nocciolata. Pop it into the freezer to chill while you prepare the cookie dough.

  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together 1 tbsp melted vegan butter, 1 tsp dairy-free yogurt, 1 1/2 tbsp granulated sugar, 1 tbsp packed brown sugar, and 1/4 tsp vanilla extract. Use a fork or whisk until smooth and well combined.

  3. Add the Dry Ingredients: Stir in 1 tbsp Dutch-process cocoa powder, 1/8 tsp baking soda, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix it again until everything is blended. Gradually fold in 3 tbsp all-purpose or gluten-free flour until you have a uniform dough.

  4. Incorporate Chocolate and Cookies: Gently fold in 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips and 1-2 crushed vegan chocolate crème-filled cookies. This little addition enhances the overall flavor.

  5. Shape the Cookie: Take a medium cookie scoop (about 1.5 tbsp) and scoop half of the dough onto your baking sheet. Make a small well in the center and press the frozen nocciolata inside. Then, scoop the remaining dough on top to enclose the filling.

  6. Chill Before Baking: Pop the cookie in the freezer for about 5-8 minutes. This helps it keep its shape while baking.

  7. Bake: Place the cookie in the oven and bake for 18 minutes, or until the edges look slightly golden and the center is set but still soft.

  8. Cool and Enjoy: Allow the cookie to cool for 5-10 minutes on the baking sheet. It will firm up slightly as it cools. For an extra touch, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top before enjoying your creation.

Storing & Reheating

To keep your cookie at room temperature, simply store it in an airtight container for up to 2 days. If you’d like to save it for longer, refrigerate for about a week, ensuring the container is sealed tightly. You can also freeze the cookie for up to 3 months; just wrap it well in plastic wrap or foil. When you’re ready to enjoy it again, reheat it in the oven at 350°F for about 5–7 minutes to revive its original gooey goodness.

Chef’s Helpful Tips

  • Avoid Overmixing: When adding in the dry ingredients, mix just until combined to keep your cookie tender.
  • Chill for the Win: Chilling the formed cookie before baking helps it maintain shape and texture, preventing spreading.
  • Testing for Doneness: If the edges appear set and the top looks slightly shiny, it’s time to take it out. Remember it’ll firm up as it cools.
  • Enhance Flavor: Consider adding a splash of espresso to heighten the chocolate flavor without altering the sweetness.

It’s always exciting to create something delicious at home; try swapping ingredients and make this recipe your own!
