Easy Nutella Brownies

Life has been crazy over the last month… my kitchen was starting to grow cobwebs!  So to dust off the cobwebs and get back in the swing of cooking, I decided to look for something easy.  And when this recipe popped up, I jumped at the chance to try it.  I was actually curious to see if you could actually make brownies with only two ingredients.

Guess what…you can!

It starts with a 13 ounce jar of Nutella!

You will also need 4 eggs and two kids who are eager to crack the eggs.  My kids always jump at the chance to help when eggs are involved.

Before you mix the eggs, pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees.  You will need an 8″x 8″ baking pan.  The best way to keep the cleanup to a minimum is to line the pan with parchment paper.  This is actually something I learned making this recipe.

When you mix the eggs, use your hand mixer on medium.  It should look frothy like this.

At the same time, spoon out the Nutella into a microwavable bowl.  Then microwave the Nutella for 1 minute.  It’s a good idea to stir the Nutella every 15-20 seconds so it doesn’t burn.

Next grab your whisk and slowly pour the Nutella into the eggs.  You should be whisking the entire time.  Pour into the pan and cook for 30 minutes or until finished.

Let the brownies completely cool before you cut into it.  Then enjoy with a cold glass of milk (or your choice of beverages)!  It’s incredibly easy to make and the kids love it!  You can also add nuts or candy or even some powdered sugar to the top of the brownies to add a little spice!
