Hazelnut Cocoa Cookie Sandwiches

A simple, no-bake treat featuring spiced cookies and rich chocolate-hazelnut spread

Prep time: 15 minutes

Makes: 8 cookie sandwiches

Ingredients

  • 16 Speculoos cookies (such as Biscoff)
  • 8 Tbsp Chocolate-hazelnut spread (such as Nutella)
  • 4 oz (115g) White chocolate or white candy melts
  • Optional: 1-2 extra cookies, crushed into fine crumbs for garnish

Instructions

  • Assemble the Sandwiches: Lay out 8 cookies on a flat surface. Spread approximately 1 tablespoon of chocolate-hazelnut spread onto each cookie. Place a second cookie on top of each to create a sandwich.
  • Flash Freeze: Arrange the sandwiches on a tray lined with parchment paper. Place the tray in the freezer for about 10–15 minutes. This firms up the filling so the cookies don’t slide apart during dipping.
  • Melt the Chocolate: While the cookies chill, melt your white chocolate. You can do this in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring in between, or use a double boiler until the chocolate is completely smooth.
  • Coat: Remove the sandwiches from the freezer. Dip each sandwich halfway into the melted white chocolate.
  • Garnish and Set: Return the dipped cookies to the parchment paper. If using cookie crumbs, sprinkle them over the wet white chocolate immediately.
  • Final Chill: Place the cookies in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes, or until the chocolate coating has fully hardened.
  • Storage Tips
    Room Temp: Keep in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
  • Fridge/Freezer: These are excellent served cold and will last up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator or 1 month in the freezer.

Quick Variations

Swap the Spread: Use peanut butter or cookie butter instead of hazelnut spread.

Swap the Coating: Use dark or milk chocolate for a different flavour profile.

Salted Version: Sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt over the white chocolate before it sets.
