Ohmygawd these brownies. These are the brownies to end all brownies. They’re so super fudgy, exactly the way a brownie should be. Get outta here cake-y brownies, there’s no place for you here. Fudge brownies are the only way to go. Actually, make that fudge brownies made with chocolate hazelnut spread, k? The texture of these brownies is just plain amazing. They’re so fudgy they’re almost truffle like. I’m telling you, they’re not like any other brownie you’ve ever had before.

These chocolate hazelnut brownies have a triple dose of chocolate. Not only do these brownies have the chocolate hazelnut spread as a base but they also have cocoa powder and melted chocolate chips. What whaaat. Triple chocolate. Triple threat. Awesome brownies.

I didn’t add nuts to these because I actually prefer brownies without nuts. But with that being said, feel free to add some chopped hazelnuts (or any kind you want). They’d add great texture and an extra boost of hazelnut flavor. I just love the smooth, velvety texture of these without the nuts. These brownies are a huge hit in our house. These are definitely going to be our go-to brownie from now on. They’re just that good. I’m sure you’ll feel the same once you try them. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

These brownies are amazing at room temperature, they almost melt in your mouth! They're also fabulous cold.

Try adding 3/4 cup of chopped hazelnuts for added texture!

*I used organic Nocciolata chocolate hazelnut spread.
