In a bowl, mix flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

In a heatproof bowl, microwave butter for 30 seconds until mostly melted. Stir to finish melting until milky in texture.

Add brown sugar, vanilla, and honey. Stir until combined.

Add egg and mix until smooth and caramel-like.

Stir in dry ingredients until just combined.

Cover and refrigerate dough for 1 1/2 hours until firm enough to shape.

Line a tray with parchment paper.

Spoon Nutella into small discs about 8 mm thick.

Freeze for 1 hour until firm.

Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Line two baking trays with parchment paper.

Roll dough into a log and cut into 10 equal portions.

Flatten each portion, place a frozen Nutella disc in the center, and seal dough around it.

Shape into thick rounds and press chocolate chips into the tops and sides.

Bake for 12–13 minutes until edges are golden and centers are just set.

Cool on the tray for 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack for 5 minutes before serving.
