Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup Nutella Use good quality Nutella for best results.
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter Melted.
- 2 large eggs Can substitute with unsweetened applesauce or mashed bananas.
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour Can substitute with gluten-free flour.
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract Optional for enhancing flavor.
- Chocolate chips Optional, can add for extra chocolate flavor.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium-sized saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and Nutella together, stirring frequently until smooth.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in granulated sugar until glossy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add to the Nutella mixture, stirring until combined. It’s okay if a few lumps remain.
- Mix in the vanilla extract. Optionally, fold in chocolate chips.
- Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish and pour in the brownie batter, spreading it evenly.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out with a few moist crumbs.
Cooling and Serving
- Let the brownies cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before cutting into squares.
- Serve warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream.
Notes
For fudgy brownies, do not overbake. Use quality ingredients for best flavor. Feel free to add nuts or a drizzle of caramel on top before baking.
