This Kinder Cookie Pie is a rich, indulgent dessert with a thick chocolate chip cookie crust, a creamy white chocolate hazelnut center, and plenty of Kinder chocolate tucked inside. I like serving it chilled so the slices stay neat and the filling sets beautifully.
Ingredients
(Tip: You'll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
200 g unsalted butter
225 g light brown soft sugar
100 g white granulated sugar
1 medium egg
1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
425 g plain flour
2 tablespoon cornflour
1.5 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
½ teaspoon sea salt
400 g milk chocolate chips
750 g white chocolate hazelnut spread
150 g Kinder chocolate or Kinder Bueno
Directions
I preheat the oven to 200°C, or 180°C for a fan oven, and line the base of an 8-inch deep springform cake tin.
I beat the butter, light brown sugar, and white sugar together until smooth and creamy. Then I add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
I add the plain flour, cornflour, bicarbonate of soda, and sea salt, then mix until a thick cookie dough forms. After that, I stir in the chocolate chips.
I divide the dough into three equal portions. I press one portion into the base of the tin, then use the second portion to line the sides and create a deep cookie shell.
I warm the white chocolate hazelnut spread slightly so it loosens, then pour it into the cookie shell. I press the Kinder pieces into the filling.
I freeze the pie for 1 hour, then cover the top with the final portion of cookie dough and seal the edges well. I freeze it again for 1 hour.
I bake the pie for 30 minutes, or until the top is deep golden. I let it cool in the tin for 1 hour, then chill it in the fridge for 5 to 6 hours or overnight.
I remove it from the tin, slice it with a sharp knife, and serve.

Variations
I sometimes swap Kinder Bueno for chopped Kinder bars for a smoother chocolate bite. I can also use milk chocolate hazelnut spread instead of white chocolate hazelnut spread for a richer chocolate center.
For extra texture, I like adding crushed biscuits, chopped hazelnuts, or extra chocolate chips to the filling.
Storage/Reheating
I store the cookie pie in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. I prefer keeping it chilled because the filling stays firmer and the slices look cleaner.
I can also freeze slices for up to 2 months. I thaw them in the fridge before serving.
To reheat, I warm a slice briefly in the microwave for a softer, gooier center, but I avoid overheating it because the filling can become too runny.
FAQs
Can I make Kinder Cookie Pie ahead of time?
Yes, I like making it the day before because chilling overnight gives the cleanest slices.
Can I use Nutella instead of white chocolate hazelnut spread?
Yes, I can use Nutella or another chocolate spread, but the flavor will be richer and more chocolatey.
Why do I need to freeze the pie before baking?
I freeze it so the filling firms up and the cookie dough holds its shape better while baking.
Can I use a different tin size?
I prefer an 8-inch deep springform tin. A larger tin will make the pie thinner and may change the baking time.
How do I get neat slices?
I chill the pie fully, then use a sharp knife. I wipe the knife between slices for cleaner cuts.
Conclusion
This Kinder Cookie Pie is a rich, sweet, and impressive dessert that I love making when I want something extra indulgent. With its thick cookie crust, creamy hazelnut filling, and Kinder chocolate pieces, it is a perfect treat for chocolate lovers.
