A few weeks ago I was browsing the cookbook section of my local bookstore, something I do pretty damn often if I’m honest. Normally I’ll browse, fall in love with a book before dragging myself away, remembering I have a library of cookbooks at home sat begging to be used. This time I caved, I’m a little embarrassed to admit that the book that broke me was the baking book of world famous vlogger Tanya Burr, Tanya Bakes
Let me start off by saying that these cookies are insane! Not only are they swirled with the godly nectar that is Nutella, but they’re bloody giant. I’m not kidding, these bad boys are two handers. In my eyes, that is never a bad thing.
The thing I love most about these cookies, more than the lashings of Nutella, is the fact the dough doesn’t need to be chilled before baking. That means you can have freshly baked cookies in the time it takes to boil your kettle. OK, I may be over exaggerating there but you get the jyst, they’re fast!

Nutella Swirl Cookies
- Total Time: 30 minutes
- Yield: 12 1x
Description
The thing I love most about these cookies, more than the lashings of Nutella, is the fact the dough doesn’t need to be chilled before baking.
Ingredients
- 200g unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 300g soft brown sugar
- 1 large, free range egg
- 325g self raising flour
- 200g Nutella
- 1tsp flaked sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°c and line 3 baking trays with baking parchment.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the egg, mixing till combined. Add the flour and salt and mix into a crumbly dough.
- Marble the Nutella through the dough using a metal spoon and roll the mixture into 10 large balls and flatten slightly with your hands. Place the balls of dough on the baking trays leaving space for the cookies to spread. Sprinkle each cookie with a little extra sea salt and bake for 13 minutes until set around the edges.
- Allow to cool on the tray for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling. Or eat them warm with ice cream if you know what’s good for you.

I cannot be trusted in a bookshop! I've far to many cookbooks already, but I'm so very easily tempted. I'm very much tempted by these cookies too. They look and sound gorgeous.
Maybe there is a typo, but these are awful… we have to throw them all away. One TBSP of salt is way too much. I love salt and I love a salted chocolate experience. These are disgusting.

Hi Sammy, Sorry you didn’t enjoy these. There’s no typo in the recipe, I really enjoyed them when I made them from Tanyas book.
Hi! I think the recipe suggests 1 tsp of salt instead of 1 tbsp. That might make it a more enjoyable experience.
Hi
I too love recipe books….and researching on the internet.
Would I be able to swap the Nutella to Biscoff spread?

Yes of course! That would be delicious!
