YES. Healthy Nutella Cookie Dough! No need to pinch yourself because you’re not dreaming. This is real life.
Cookie dough spiked with Nutella. That’s also guilt-free. It’s sweet, it’s fudgy, it’s chocolatey, it’s OH, SO, GOOD.
Incredible chocolate taste. Intense hazelnut flavor. Indulgent fudgy texture. It tastes completely unhealthy, but it’s actually good for you.

Healthy Nutella Cookie Dough
Cookie dough spiked with Nutella. That’s also guilt-free. It’s sweet, it’s fudgy, it’s chocolatey, it’s OH, SO, GOOD.
- one 15oz can Black Beans (drained and rinsed well!**)
- 132g (½ cup) Homemade Nutella
- ¼ cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- ½ tsp Liquid Stevia Extract
- 64g (2 scoops) Unflavored Whey Protein Powder
- 20g (¼ cup) Unsweetened Natural Cocoa Powder
- 7 packets Natural Sweetener (stevia, Truvia, etc.)
- pinch of Salt
- 144g (1½ cups) Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
- ⅓ cup Mini Dark Chocolate Chips (optional)
-
In a blender (I used my NutriBullet), add the beans, Nutella, almond milk, vanilla extract, and stevia extract. Blend until completely smooth, scraping down the sides of the blender if necessary.
-
In a large bowl, stir together the protein powder, cocoa powder, sweetener, and salt. Scrape the blended bean mixture on top and stir together until completely combined.
-
Fold in the oats (and optional chocolate chips, if using).
-
Cover with plastic wrap, refrigerate overnight, and serve the next day for the cookie dough texture, but you can totally eat some now because that’s the “true” cookie dough-eating experience.
