Recipe video above. Fudgy chocolate brownies with the signature crinkly top stuffed with a layer of Nutella! Having tried various Nutella Brownies in my time, I've found this is the best way to get a good hit of Nutella flavour into brownies. Mixing/swirling it in just doesn't have the same eff

Ingredients
- 400 g / 13 oz Nutella ((Note 1))
- 200 g / 1 3/4 US sticks (14 tbsp) unsalted butter
- 200 g / 1 1/4 cups / 7 oz dark chocolate melts / semi sweet chocolate chips ((Note 2))
- 1 cup (175g) brown sugar (, loosely packed )
- 3 eggs (, room temp)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (75g) flour (, plain/all purpose, sifted if lump)
- 1/4 cup (30g) cocoa powder (, sifted)
- Pinch of salt
Steps
-
Grease a 20cm/8" square pan with butter then line with parchment/baking paper with overhang.
-
Scrape Nutella into pan, spread. Freeze 1 hour or until solid.
-
Using paper overhang, remove onto a plate and return to freezer (softens pretty quickly)
-
Preheat oven to 180C/350F (standard) or 160C/320F (fan forced / convection).
-
Reline the same pan with parchment/baking paper with overhang.
-
Place butter and chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl, microwave in 30 second bursts (takes me 1 min) until almost melted. Stir to finish melting and incorporate butter into chocolate.
-
Cool for a few minutes. Add eggs, sugar and vanilla, whisk to combine.
-
Add Dry ingredients, whisk to combine (few lumps ok).
-
Pour half batter into pan. Use spatula/egg flip to lift frozen Nutella slab and place on top. Top with remaining batter.
-
Bake 35 minutes. Insert skewer in middle to check if cooked - should come out with mostly pale brown smear (Nutella) and a bit of dark brown smear (brownie, fudgy).
-
Cool in pan 30 minutes, then use paper overhang to lift out. Cool for at least another 45 minutes then slice into 16 pieces (4 x 4) and serve!
