Nutella Brownies

Nutella is possibly the most glorious chocolate creation in the world. I'm lucky enough to have some in my kitchen right now. The issue is, though, that I'll eat it all waaaaay too fast, feel sick, gain twenty pounds and die. So I'm solving this issue by sharing the Nutella love with others! I googled tons of recipes and came across some pretty good ideas. But one recipe won me over because it's so damn cheap. Three ingredients?! That is like the holy grail for a college student! Nutella, eggs, and flour. Hell yeah! So I have some Nutella brownie "cupcakes" in the oven right now :)

Nutella Brownie Cupcakes

So you already read it, the ingredients are simple:

• 2 eggs
• 10 Tbsp. flour
• 1 cup Nutella 
• A dash of salt (I forgot!) but I think sea salt would be nice in here
• Optional ingredients--get creative with it yo!
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips (white, milk, dark, semisweet!)
• nuts! walnuts, pecans, macadamia nuts, you name it
• butterscotch chips?
• dried fruits (mmm dried cherries!)
• a dash of cinnamon 

Gather your ingredients

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees!

(my oven is weird, so I have it a little higher)

Prepare your muffin tins (this recipe makes 12). I used muffin liner thangs. You could just spray yours to prevent sticking issues. But the brownies are pretty oily themselves I think you'll be okay.

Crack the eggs into a large-medium bowl

Mix them up & add the NUTELLA (I read from some reviewers that heating the Nutella makes it easier, but it worked fine for me without heating!) 

Add your 10 tbsp of flour into the chocolate goop and mix it in there

Simple, right?! Now pour your chocolate goopy goodness into your muffin tins.

Pop those lil guys in the oven and cook for 12-15 minutes.

Look how cute! 

Now, you can eat them like this and they will taste delicious. But if you're an overachiever you can try to make frosting. I'm debating on it right now. Too sweet? Maybe. Extra delicious? Yes. I think  I just made up my mind. Frosting it is! 

I'm just going to be real ghetto in here with the frosting and whip together a little butter, nutella, milk and maybe a splash of vanilla (and a dash of salt!). If you are too scared to live the ghetto life like me, here's a good recipe.

ENJOY :)
