Eggless nutella cookies recipe - of course made with popular chocolate hazelnut spread - NUTELLA. These cookies have crisp edges with soft and chewy center.
Who doesn’t like nutella? If you are one of those nutella haters, please do not read further. Because you will see some serious love for it.
I always say YES to nutella and anything made from nutella like these cookies or milkshake or brownies and list will go on. Though this eggless nutella cookies is the first recipe that I am sharing here. I know this chocolate-hazelnut spread thing is sugary and not-healthy, but what to do? This is so addictive.
We are using very less butter here meaning less fat. Because of that, these cookies are chewy in texture. Be careful, DO NOT OVERBAKE, otherwise this can be too chewy and very hard like rock.
If baked perfectly, you will have most delicious tasting and soft cookies with little chewy texture.
Addition of instant coffee powder in the cookies perks up the chocolate flavor from nutella.

How to make eggless nutella cookies recipe (Step by Step Photos):
1) Take all purpose flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl.
2) Whisk it till everything is mixed well.
3) In another bowl, take softened butter, nutella, sugar and instant coffee.
4) Using spatula, start mashing and mixing it. You will get thick yet crumbly paste like mixture.
5) Now add milk and vanilla extract.
6) Again mix well.
7) Add dry flour mixture.
8) Mix it till everything is incorporated well. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or plate and keep in refrigerator to chill for about 30-45 minutes. We are chilling the dough, so cookies will not spread much while baking.
9) Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees F or 190 degrees C for at least 10 minutes.
10) Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with nonstick cooking spray and keep it aside.
11) Once the dough is chilled, make 1 ½ to 2 tablespoons size of dough balls. Arrange them on prepared cookie sheet few inches apart.
12) Bake into preheated oven for 12-14 minutes. Do not over-bake them, otherwise they will be hard like rock. Then remove it from the oven and let the cookies cool down in the sheet for 5 minutes.
Then using spatula, transfer the cookies on a wire rack and let them cool. You can enjoy these cookies while they are still warm.
Serving suggestion: Enjoy these nutella cookies any time of the day. Many prefers to enjoy their cookies with a glass of milk.

I have tried a few of your egg-less cookie recipes and the have turned out great. We have a kid with an egg allergy and he cannot even touch an egg so cooking with him is hard. He can help with these with no worries! We just made the oatmeal raisin and now these Nutella cookies are next!! Thank you again for your recipes they make it possible for us to cook together <3
Glad that now he can have fun making and eating the cookies.
what baout the proportion of nutella : sugar: flour?
Sorry didn't get your question.
I have mentioned the ingredients quantity in the recipe card already.
I have a doubt, should the sugar completely melt while mixing the ingredients?
It should be mixed and partially dissolved (not completely melted)
In my hurry to make these delectable cookies, I forgot sugar in my first batch. How silly! But to my surprise, it did not do any harm. They tasted of Nutella obviously, and their appearance was perfectly normal. The second time I added sugar, but did not have the patience to chill them. So as you said, they did spread out. They had this country side small cafe type appearance, almost like a monster cookie, but the texture was correct, soft, and the taste was of course great. They went well as a dessert after freshly fallen snow. Can't wait to try your coconut cookies and oatmeal cookies.
Surprised that it came out good without sugar.
Glad to know that you liked these cookies. and hope you enjoy other as well.
