kcalThese rich and fudgy Nutella brownies are every chocolate lover’s dream. With just a few simple ingredients, you can whip up a batch of decadent brownies with that signature hazelnut flavor in under an hour.
Ingredients
1 cup (280g) Nutella
2 large eggs (room temperature)
½ cup (65g) all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
Optional: ½ cup (90g) chocolate chips or chopped hazelnuts for extra texture

- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8×8-inch (20×20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a little overhang for easy removal.
- Mix the Nutella and eggs in a medium bowl until smooth and well combined.
- Add the flour and salt to the bowl, stirring gently until no dry streaks remain. Avoid overmixing
- Optional: Fold in chocolate chips or chopped hazelnuts for added flavor.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.

Expert Tips and Variations
For a twist, try adding a handful of chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or a swirl of peanut butter on top. You can use almond or oat milk instead of regular milk if needed, and a pinch of espresso powder can intensify the chocolate flavor. Avoid overbaking, as these brownies are best when soft and fudgy, and make sure to let them cool slightly before cutting to keep them from crumbling. Chocolate Roblox cake is also one of the best desserts for sweet lovers.
How to Store Nutella Brownies
Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the fridge for up to a week. To reheat, warm in the microwave for 10–15 seconds or enjoy at room temperature for the perfect fudgy bite.
Things People Ask
What makes a brownie more fudgy?
Brownies turn fudgy when they have more fat (butter, chocolate, Nutella) and less flour, baked slightly underdone. This keeps the center moist, dense, and rich.
How do I know when the brownies are done?
They’re ready when the edges are set, but the center is still slightly soft. A toothpick inserted should come out with moist crumbs, not wet batter.
Can I make these brownies in a microwave?
For a quick fix, you can make small portions in a microwave-safe mug, but oven-baked brownies have the best texture.
How should I store Nutella brownies?
Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. They also freeze well for 2–3 months.
