Get Baking!
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Prep an 8X8 inch baking dish.
2. In a large bowl, bung in all the ingredients and combine until smooth. Smooth the top with a spatula.
3. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. Be careful not to over bake! We want those brownies soft and chewy, not dry and crusty.
Cool, cut, serve and YENJOY!
We’ve been baking up a batch in the Con Affetto kitchen as we were typing out this post (super multi tasking, no? 😉 ) and we’ve just heard our oven timer PING…so…. Later, peeps! Um, in case you’re still around reading that is. We’re pretty sure we lost you’ll at “bake for 25-30 minutes…” and you’re probably thinking about baking your very own easy Nutella brownies already!

BONUS!!! Easy Nutella Brownies: Con Affetto’s Tippy Tips!
OR you could even sprinkle over some frosting sugar!
Easy Nutella Brownies Tip #1:
These babies are kinda fudgy, just the way we like ’em. If you want yours more cake-y, bung in 1/2 a teaspoon of baking soda to the ingredients.
Easy Nutella Brownies Tip #2:
For a healthier version you can replace the all purpose flour with almond flour.
Easy Nutella Brownies Tip #3:
Okay, this more like a SUPER bonus and less like a tip. You can even make these babies with TWO ingredients. Yup, you heard that right. TWO. Just swap two eggs with four eggs (make sure you whisk them super, like super, nice) and use 11/4 cup of Nutella. You’re welcome. You can go die of happiness now 😉
