Oh. My. Goodness. Ladies (and gents), let me tell you about this absolutely divine midnight snack that has been my guilty pleasure for weeks now. You know those moments when you’re binge-watching your favorite show at midnight, and your sweet tooth starts screaming? Well, I’ve got just the thing – my Nutella-Stuffed Air-Fried Cookie Dough Bites. Trust me, they’re worth every single calorie!
Let’s get real – we all deserve a little indulgence sometimes, right? This recipe takes just 15 minutes, and you probably have most ingredients in your pantry already. How convenient is that?
What you’ll need:
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 stick softened butter
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup white sugar
• 1 egg
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp baking soda
• Nutella
• Mini chocolate chips
• Pinch of salt
Girl, before you ask – yes, the raw flour needs to be heat-treated! Pop it in the microwave for 1-1.5 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until it reaches 165°F. Safety first, sweetie!
Now, if you’re loving this recipe so far, make sure to follow me on Newsbreak for more drool-worthy recipes that’ll make your taste buds dance!
The fun part (aka assembly):
1. Cream together butter and sugars until fluffy
2. Beat in egg and vanilla
3. Mix in flour, baking soda, and salt
4. Fold in chocolate chips
5. Refrigerate for 10 minutes (I know, waiting is the worst!)
6. Form small balls, make an indent, fill with Nutella, seal
7. Air fry at 350°F for 6-7 minutes
Pro tip: If you’re feeling extra naughty, sprinkle some sea salt on top right after they’re done. _chef’s kiss_
These little bites of heaven are crispy on the outside, gooey on the inside, and that warm Nutella center? Absolutely to die for! And hey, since they’re air-fried, they’re practically healthy, right? _winks_

P.S. If your significant other “accidentally” eats them all, I cannot be held responsible. Hide them well, ladies! 😉
