Here’s the magic behind each ingredient:
Nutella
Provides sweetness, richness, and built-in chocolate flavor
Eggs
Binds everything and gives structure
Flour
Just enough to make them brownie-like — not pancake-like
And that’s it.
No butter.
No oil.
No melting chocolate.
No sifting.
Just a bowl, a whisk, and a pan.
πͺ Ingredients (Makes 8–12 Brownies)
Nutella or chocolate-hazelnut spread
1 cup
Large eggs
2
All-purpose flour
½ cup
✅ Optional : Add a pinch of salt or a splash of vanilla extract for extra depth.
π° Step-by-Step: How to Make These Gooey, Gourmet Brownies
Step 1: Preheat and Prep
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) .
Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or wax paper — this ensures the brownies lift out easily and don’t stick.
Step 2: Whisk the Eggs
In a large bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk or fork — no mixer needed.
No need to go crazy — just whip them up until smooth.
Step 3: Add Nutella
Add 1 cup of Nutella to the eggs — and stir until fully combined.
It will look thick.
It will look weirdly rich.
But trust the process.
Step 4: Mix in the Flour
Add ½ cup of flour — and stir until just blended.
Don’t overmix — it’s okay if it’s a little lumpy.
The less you stir, the more gooey and fudgy your brownies will be.
Step 5: Bake Until Just Set
Pour the thick batter into your prepared pan — and smooth it out with a spatula.
Bake for 20–25 minutes , or until the edges are set but the center still looks slightly underdone.
Let cool completely before slicing — they firm up as they cool.
π§ Tips for Perfect Results Every Time

π§ Final Thoughts: Sometimes the Best Brownies Are the Ones That Feel Like a Cheat
We often think of brownies as a weekend project — something that takes time, effort, and a full kitchen cleanup.
But what if I told you…
You could make soft, fudgy, restaurant-style brownies with just three ingredients?
No butter.
No sugar.
No cocoa powder.
Just Nutella, eggs, and flour — and a little magic from the oven.
So next time you're craving something sweet but don’t feel like baking a full batch of brownies…
Don’t reach for the boxed mix.
Grab a jar of Nutella.
Crack a couple of eggs.
Mix in a bit of flour.
Because sometimes, the best desserts aren’t complicated.
They’re sweet.
They’re simple.
They’re gooey.
And once you take that first bite?
You’ll wonder why you ever baked brownies any other way.
