Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to your new favorite midnight craving: The Nutella-Stuffed Air-Fried Cookie Dough Balls. Trust me, your taste buds are about to throw a party, and everyone’s invited!
You know those nights when you’re binge-watching your favorite show, and suddenly your stomach starts having a conversation with you? Well, I’ve got just the solution that’ll make you feel like you’re cheating on your diet (but in the most delicious way possible).
What you’ll need (don’t judge me, we’re all friends here):
– 1 tube of refrigerated cookie dough
– 1/2 cup Nutella
– Powdered sugar for dusting
– A sprinkle of sea salt (because we’re fancy like that)
– Your air fryer (our midnight partner in crime)
Now, honey, let me walk you through this heavenly creation:
1. Start by taking small portions of cookie dough (about 2 tablespoons each) and flatten them like you’re giving them a tiny massage.
1. Add a teaspoon of Nutella in the center (I won’t tell if you add extra 😉)
1. Wrap the cookie dough around the Nutella like you’re protecting a precious secret.
1. Pop these babies in your air fryer at 330°F for 6-8 minutes.

While they’re cooking, let me tell you – the first time I made these at midnight, my roommate thought I was losing it. But after one bite, she declared me the unofficial midnight snack queen!
1. Once they’re golden brown, let them cool for 2-3 minutes (I know it’s hard, but patience is a virtue).
1. Dust with powdered sugar and a tiny pinch of sea salt.
The result? Warm, gooey, Nutella-filled happiness that’ll make you want to do a happy dance in your kitchen at 2 AM. The outside is perfectly crispy, while the inside is like a warm hug for your soul.
