You’re going to hate me for this. I even thought twice about posting this recipe, but Nutella Brownies, in less than 30 minutes, made with only 4 ingredients… If you’re still there, at least read through the recipe before running off to the kitchen!
I’ll keep this one short – I know the moment you read ‘Gooey Nutella Brownies’ you made a move towards the kitchen. I understand, and I support you wholeheartedly in your decision.
Allow me to humbly present you with an ingredients list, and some cooking directions so your Nutella Brownies are the best Nutella Brownies they can be (though let’s be honest, even if they were overcooked, you’d end up with what is essentially a delicious Nutella close-enough-to-a-cookie-thing).
How does this work with such few ingredients? Well, in brief – Nutella is magical (it also already contains chocolate, fats, and sugar!).
Now – in the off-chance that you don’t have any Nutella, this recipe will work with any chocolate hazelnut spread, though the flavour/consistency may be slightly different.
And if for whatever reason, chocolate hazelnut spreads aren’t your thing (WHY THE DEVIL NOT?!?)… you should still make some good ol’ fashioned Chocolate Chip Brownies today.
Go eat! And be merry!

What size Nutella tub?
Riz
Hi Gemma,
Thanks for spotting that I’d left that bit out! I use a 375g tub 🙂
I’ve updated it in the recipe itself as well. Hope you enjoy it!

They sound so easy and look AMAZING! I’ll have to grab some Nutella and get going!
Riz
They are INCREDIBLY easy to make!
I hope you like them Jenna!
Sarah
Hey Riz, I think I can just about get over my hate for you for making these so darn easy – but I mean, nutella brownies?! These look and sound fantastic – good thing we always have a spare nutella jar around because these have to happen
Riz
Hahaha! Hope you enjoy them Sarah!

Your recipe turned out the best that I ever made! We are not computer people, but I got an i phone and have internet on it. Your site was the easiest to read, and you have the best photos. I collect recipe books, and really like it when there is a good photo. We also just made your fluffy pancakes, and they are our new favourites (and I am usually a banana crepe person) . Thank you for the work & effort you put out to share with everyone.
Riz
Hi Gaylene! Thank you so much for your lovely message! I can’t really express how happy it makes me that you found my site easy to read, and that my recipes turned out well for you – I do put a lot of myself into building the site and writing each recipe, and your comment has just made me very, very, happy!
I hope you continue to visit the site, I will having more recipes up whenever I can 🙂

So we’ve made this recipe twice in the last three days, I made it the day before yesterday and my 16yo brother made it today
The recipe at first seemed too good to be true, but I’m glad that I took the ‘risk’ and made these
They were absolutely terrific, had some guests come over and they absolutely loved it too
They’re very similar to the Blue Ribbon brownies AppleBees serve and tasted really good with vanilla ice cream too
They lived up to their brownie-ness with crackly tops and fudgy insides – I did indeed use baking powder but only 1/2 teaspoon which I think was good enough
Thanks for sharing it
Xxx
Riz
Hey Ayerah! Glad to hear it worked well for both you and your brother!! I’ve not tried the Applebee’s brownies but they sound pretty tasty 🙂
Andrea
thanks this was my first attempt ever to bake a cake and omg it was awesome…
Riz
Wahaay! Congratulations on baking your first cake! And thank you for using my recipe to do it!! 🙂
lucille
Hi sir riz! how many brownie squares did u produce out of this recipe? is it really fudgy and gooey in the inside? thank you so much!
Riz
Hey there Lucille! The number of brownie squares will depend on the size of your baking dish, and the size you like to cut your squares! I think I usually get around 20 pieces with a 9-inch square baking dish.
And yes! It’s fudgy and yummy and gooey! (Though not the melted lava cake dripping kind of gooey-ness… more like a moist gooey-ness!)
Hope you enjoy them! Everyone I know that’s tried them has asked for the recipe!
NOM NOM Boris
wow that’s a lot of Nutella!!! Love it. So baking powder would make it less gooey? I love gooey brownies, but not always able to get it right 🙁
Riz
Yep, using baking powder makes it less gooey… though it helps it maintain a bit more structure when you eat it too. 🙂
Kelly
Only 4 ingredients? Sign me up for a batch!
Riz
Haha! Okay, making a batch just for you!
Archana
Can’t wait to try this! I bought 2 large containers of nutella from costco (very greedy) and this is an awesome recipe to use some of that up.
Riz
Ah! Yes! I hope you like it… this is actually the recipe that a lot of my personal friends have chosen to make! And everyone has loved it so far!
