Nutella Brownies
Nutella Brownies combine butter, sugar, Nutella, and cocoa powder to create a rich, dense dessert with a moist center and set edges. Including optional espresso powder enhances the chocolate depth without adding noticeable coffee flavor. These brownies bake in a 9x13 dish, yielding a sticky thick batter that results in a fudgy texture after baking and cooling.

Ingredients
- 1 cup butter
- 2 1/4 cups sugar
- 1/2 cup Nutella
- 4 large egg
- 1 1/4 cups cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon espresso powder optional
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 10 ounces chocolate chips optional
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9x13 baking dish.
- In small saucepan over low heat, melt butter completely. Stir in sugar and continue cooking for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly. Do not allow sugar mixture to boil.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the Nutella until well combined.
- Pour butter mixture into a large bowl or stand mixer, beat in cocoa powder, eggs, salt, baking powder, espresso powder, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- Stir in the flour and chocolate chips until just combined.
- Spread into prepared pan (batter will be very thick and sticky) and bake for about 30-35 minutes, until a tester comes out mostly clean. The edges should be set and the center should still look slightly moist, but not uncooked.
- Cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Store tightly covered for 3-5 days.

Notes
- Espresso powder adds richness to chocolate flavor without a coffee taste.
- Test doneness by ensuring brownie edges are set and the center is slightly moist but not raw.
- Store cooled brownies covered at room temperature for 3 to 5 days for best freshness.
