These chocolate chip Nutella bars are so quick and easy to make. Chocolate chip cookie bars, stuffed with Nutella, they’re crunchy on top, chewy on the bottom and oh so gooey in the middle.

Equipment
mixing bowls
Silicone spatula and balloon whisk
9 inch square baking tin
Instructions
Make sure the butter is melted and set aside to cool slightly.
Preheat oven to 180C / 350F /160C fan forced. Line a 9 inch square baking tin with baking paper.
Sift together the flour, cornflour, baking soda and salt in a medium mixing bowl and whisk using a balloon whisk to aerate and disperse.
In a large bowl whisk together both sugars, butter, oil, milk and vanilla.
Use a spatula to mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until 80% combined.
Add the chocolate chips to the dough. Fold through or use your hands to mix them through well.
Scatter half of the cookie dough in small clumps into the lined tin, then press down all over to flatten out and level.
Heat the nutella for 20 seconds in the microwave then spread it over the cookie base. Scatter the remaining cookie dough, in small pieces evenly over the top of the Nutella layer until it is well covered - don’t press it down.
Bake for 28-30 minutes (or until turning golden), turning half way through.
Allow to cool in the tin for at least 45 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
I use a combination of plain flour and cornflour (cornstarch) as a replacement for cake flour. Feel free to use cake flour for both quantities, if you prefer.
For best results you should always weigh ingredients like flour and sugar. Kitchen scales like these are relatively cheap but if you can’t weigh the ingredients, use the spoon and level method (don’t scoop).
All ovens vary - check your bake 3-4 minutes before the recipe suggests.
These cookie bars have a crunchy topping. If you prefer it softer, remove them from the oven 5-7 minutes earlier.
