Nutella Brownies

Boomette's Note:

This is a recipe from Ricardo. It's made with Nutella :P

• Total Time: 1 hrs
• Prep Time: 20 mins
• Cook Time: 40 mins

Ingredients:

Yield: 16 brownies

• ½ cup all-purpose flour (unbleached)
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup nutella
• ½ cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ cup unsalted butter , melted, room temperature

Directions:

1. Put rack in center of the oven. Preheat oven at 325°F Put parchment paper in the bottom of a 9 inch square pan (but taking care to let exceed a strip of parchment paper on each side (2 sides) and butter the two other sides). Sorry for this sentence, I had so much trouble translating it LOL.
2. In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Set aside.
3. In another bowl, with an electric mixer, beat eggs, nutella, brown sugar and vanilla until the mixture is creamy and homogeneous, about 2 minutes. At low speed, add dry ingredients alternating with melted butter.
4. Spread in the pan. Cook 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of cake comes out with lumps and not completely clean.
5. Let cool in the pan about 2 hours. Remove from pan and cut in squares.

Yummy! We always have a couple of containers of Nutella in our pantry and these are easy to whip together. You cannot really tell that these are Nutella brownies but they are moist, fudgy brownies. I used salted butter so left out the salt. 1 cup of Nutella is equivalent to one 13oz. container. Next time I will also frost the brownies with Nutella and sprinkle with chopped, toasted hazelnuts. Made for Every Day is a Holiday. Thank you for the recipe.

These were simple and good. I added about an 1/8 teaspoon of cinnamon. It really brought out the hazelnut flavor of the nutella.

Loved these! Didn't have enough Nutella to make a full batch so made a half batch and spooned them into mini muffin pan lined with paper and baked for about 25 minutes. Can't wait to try this one on our friends who love brownies. Thank you for sharing Boomette. Made for Everyday Is A Holiday.
