Welcome friends! If you remember about a week ago we did a three ingredient
Nutella brownie recipe hack versus a five ingredient Nutella brownie recipe
hack, and pretty much in every sense of the word hack those two recipes were
hacks. The brownies came up dry, we tried them several several times
trying to get that right texture and flavour, but it just never worked out.
The Nutella flavour was really dull, the chocolate flavour was kind of dull, and I
guess if you were in a pinch and you wanted to do something quickly that
would work. But there are far better recipes to make Nutella brownies and so
we're gonna show you one today. So into this into this bowl I've got butter,
chocolate and Nutella. And I'm just going to stick that in the microwave to melt
it all together. Okay so that's melted well just set that aside to cool a
little bit. Into this bowl I've got some flour in here so I'm gonna put the
cocoa in and we'll just give that a mix together with a little bit of salt.
I like to mix the cocoa into the flour. I find that later - of course it gets
everywhere -- I find that later it it mixes in better if it's together already.
Trying to mix the cocoa in on its own often just gets kind of clumpy and it
doesn't mix very well. So that's good we'll set that aside.
Out of the way. And now some eggs.
I'll just whisk those a little bit. Into the eggs I've got some white sugar and
some brown sugar and I'll just whisk those in. Now vanilla, we noticed with the
recipe hack last time that vanilla didn't really change the flavour all that
much and I think that's because of how much vanilla was in the recipe. There was
very little, so I've doubled it up this time. We'll whisk that in and then
the flavour of Nutella gets kind of dull when you bake with it.
It's there but it's not pronounced it's not that flavour that everybody loves. So I've
got our homemade hazelnut liqueur here and I'm gonna put some of that in as well.
And that will really bump up that hazelnut flavour. That in combination with
the extra chocolate and the cocoa will really make these taste more Nutella
than Nutella. So we'll mix that in now. I'm going to switch from a whisk to a
spatula and we'll put in the chocolate.
Just carefully mix that together and once the chocolate and the egg and
butter is all combined then we'll put in the flour. Little bit of the flour in the
cocoa. Now the last bit of flour and cocoa and we'll just mix that in. So the
addition of the cocoa will really amp up the chocolate flavour that along with the
hazelnut is just going to be amazing. If you don't have the hazelnut liqueur or our
homemade hazelnut liqueur you can use Frangelico. And if you don't have
Frangelico or you think i'm not gonna go and buy that you can just leave it out.
All that happens is the flavour of the hazelnut the Nutella flavour just is a
little bit dull but the brownies are still amazing. So all mixed together.
I have a nine by nine cake pan with a parchment sling in it and the
parchment sling just means that I can get it out easier at the end.
We'll pour that batter in.
we'll stick that in the oven and see what happens.
All right Glen!
So brownies? Nutella brownies. They already know. Yeah it's always me that
doesn't know right? Coveted corner piece. The corner piece thank you.
mmm-hmm that one is a much nuttier creamier yeah better mouthfeel then yeah
yeah simpler I'll say simpler ones that you made? Well I found the other one all of
the flavours were just dull like there was no pronounced flavour that didn't
grab you it wasn't chocolate there wasn't hazelnut this I'm getting Nutella
flavours. Yeah I'm getting a rich chocolate flavour it's it's dense and
moist and rich and and considering the edges a little clearly a little
overbaked mhm I was expecting it to be super dry
in the middle but it is not know which was you know a little surprising but a
lovely surprise. yeah so I mean the edge is for those
people like crunchy edges which is why the corner piece is coveted at our house.
the interior you can see the interior is still really moist look at maybe they
want to look mm-hmm so yeah I say winner. Okay! Okay what?
chewy my mouth is full. Now I understand why people want to do a three
and a five ingredient. some people who you might not be you might not have
everything in the house. Some days that's how it works.
what have I got? But I know a
lot of people get intimidated when they see a long ingredient list and they
think oh it's really hard I can't do that.
There's nothing technique wise in this that's any harder than the three
ingredient one of the five ingredient and so timewise it didn't take that much
longer either and so I want to doesn't I want you to push yourself if you think
you could only make the three ingredient one because that's your skill level push
yourself and make this one because you're gonna be so much happier but if
you're making the three ingredient one because what you've got in the house
today is some Nutella, flour and eggs... I guess so
it'll pass yeah but this is miles better yeah miles push
it's not that difficult give it a try
thanks for stopping by see you again soon you can do this yeah alright
anybody can do this I can do this
Ultimate Nutella brownie recipe.
