Anyone can say they have the best chocolate chip cookies recipe, but this really is the best EVER! REALLY!
These are salted, brown buttered, triple chocolate, Nutella stuffed cookies that will absolutely make your mouth drool for more after one bite.
They have a crispy edge and a gooey center.
They are my new favorite cookie.

What makes them so good?
These little guys are made with brown butter...That alone could make them a winner.
They also are made with two types of sugar, dark chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and NUTELLA!
They are AMAZING! What seals the deal is the coarse sea salt at the end.
Watch how to make
Once baked, you have INCREDIBLY WICKED GOOD cookies.
You have a combination of a soft gooey center with a crunchy edge and a salty finish.

What are the ingredients?
Here is the list of ingredients that you need to make the best chocolate chip cookies EVER!!!!
- all purpose flour- Sift the flour! This will help with the correct texture.
- baking soda
- salt
- unsalted butter- This helps with browning the butter. Salt in the butter foams more when browning.
- brown sugar- Dark brown sugar is best for the caramel flavor, but you can use light brown sugar.
- granulated sugar
- eggs
- vanilla extract
- Greek yogurt
- semi-sweet chocolate chips
- milk chocolate chips
- dark chocolate chips
- Nutella
- coarse sea salt- You want a real crunchy salt.
Sounds like a lot of ingredients, right? It is. However, the cookies are worth it.

How to make them?
These cookies take a little more work than a typical chocolate cookie, but the effort is worth it.
Follow these steps to make them. Don't skip a step!
- Mix flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl and set aside.
- Brown the butter.
- With an electric mixer, mix the butter and sugars until blended. Beat in the egg, egg yolk, vanilla, and yogurt until combined.
- Slowly add dry ingredients and beat on low-speed just until combined.
- Gently fold in all of the chocolate chips.
- Chill dough for 2 or more hours.
- Roll 1 ½ tablespoons of dough into a ball. Flatten the dough ball very thinly into the palm of your hand. Place 1 teaspoon of chilled Nutella in the center.
- Fold dough around it, rolling into a ball -- it doesn’t have to be perfect. However, make sure Nutella is not seeping out of dough. Add more dough if necessary.
- Bake into the BEST Chocolate Chip Cookies you will ever eat!

Does brown butter make a difference in the taste of the cookie?
Absolutely! The browning butter makes the butter taste richer, and nuttier.
It makes the butter flavor stand out.
Combined with sugar, the brown butter almost gives that delicious caramel taste.
Why do you chill cookie dough?
Chilling cookie dough solidifies the butter. As the cookies bake, the butter in the chilled cookie dough takes longer to melt. The longer the butter remains solid, the less cookies spread.

Best Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe-Triple Chocolate Nutella Stuffed Cookies
Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cup sifted all purpose flour
- 1 ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 ¼ cups brown sugar
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tbs real Greek yogurt
- ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup milk chocolate chips
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 Nutella Jar
- coarse sea salt
Instructions
- Mix 2 ¼ cup sifted all purpose flour, 1 ¼ tsp baking soda, and ¼ tsp salt in a mixing bowl and set aside.
- Melt 1 cup butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Watch carefully and stir the butter to prevent it from scorching. Once the butter turns a toasty brown color, remove from heat immediately. Set aside to cool for a few minutes.
- With an electric mixer, mix the brown butter, 1 ¼ cups brown sugar, and ¼ cup granulated sugar until blended.
- Beat in 1 egg, 1 egg yolk, 1 ½ tsp vanilla, and 1 tbs yogurt until combined.
- Slowly add dry ingredients and beat on low-speed just until combined.
- Gently fold in ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, ½ cup milk chocolate chips, and ½ cup dark chocolate chips.
- Chill dough for 2 or more hours.
- Preheat oven at 350 degrees.
- Roll 1 ½ tablespoons of dough into a ball. Flatten the dough ball very thinly into the palm of your hand. Place 1 teaspoon of chilled Nutella in the center. Fold dough around it, rolling into a ball -- it doesn’t have to be perfect. However, make sure Nutella is not seeping out of dough. Add more dough if necessary.
- Place dough balls on cookie sheet, 2 inches apart and flatten tops with your hand VERY gently.
- Bake the cookies 9-11 minutes or until the edges of the cookies begin to turn golden brown. They will look underdone in the middle, but will continue to cook once out of the oven. Cool cookies on the sheets at least 2 minutes. Sprinkle with a little sea salt. Remove the cooled cookies from the baking sheets after a few minutes and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough.
