Nutella & Peanut Butter Brownies


I had all good intentions of baking some sultana scones today, but while surfing the food blogs of the net I noticed some delicious looking Nutella & Peanut Butter Brownies at The Hungry Housewife. My love of Nutella is well documented so I decided I HAD to make them!

They worked well and were very nice warmed up with a blob of extra thick cream. Scrumptious. You can find the link for the original recipe at The Hungry Housewife. Below is half the original recipe and in grams rather than cups.

Nutella & Peanut Butter Brownies
Makes 16 squares

110g unsalted butter
200g sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs
75g plain flour
55g cocoa
1/4 tsp baking powder
4 tbsp peanut butter (I used chunky)
4 tbsp nutella

1) Preheat oven to 180oc. Line 8 inch x 8 inch pan with baking parchment. Melt butter then stir in sugar. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in all of the remaining dry ingredients.

2) Heat Nutella and peanut butter until runny. Stir into Brownie mix. Pour into tin then bake for 25 min until top has a light papery crust.

  1. Jules, that's pure evil!!!! ;) I don't think I should ever make these as I just know I'd eat the lot straight from the oven.

  2. I've never eaten Nutella, I think I'm afraid it might be addictive. I love brownies and these look positively dangerous!
