Super Duper 8 Nutella Lava Cookies


Super Duper Yummylicious is the only thing I can say about these cookies. For once my husband is complaining why didn't I bake more! Light crust on the outer, crunchy roasted almonds bits when you sink your teeth into the chocolicious cookie and it oozes with gooey Nutella when you reach the core of these babies.

This wonderful recipe is again  from my baking partner, G. According to her the original recipe uses hazelnuts but since I ran out of hazelnuts and left with some almonds in my fridge, she decided to improvise with almonds.

Everyone at home loves it.. hope you like it too! Definitely a keeper for me.


Makes only 8 large Cookies


Ingredients:
60 grams whole almonds
60 grams butter - divided into small cubes
170 grams best quality semi sweet or dark chocolates ( I used half of each)
1 large egg
1/3 cup fine granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1/2 cups flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch salt
8 teaspoon Nutella (freeze in the fridge)
