Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 130 grams melted butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 20 grams Nutella (for batter swirl)
  • 60 grams Nutella (for filling)

Dry Ingredients

  • 85 grams granulated sugar
  • 150 grams chocolate (milk or dark), chopped
  • 45 grams cocoa powder
  • 45 grams all purpose flour
  • 65 grams chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter and chocolate: In a pan over low heat, melt the butter until bubbly. Add the chopped chocolate and stir constantly until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Remove from heat to prevent burning.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients: Sift the cocoa powder and flour into the warm butter-chocolate mixture. Stir thoroughly until a smooth combined batter forms, then set aside to cool slightly.
  3. Whisk the eggs and sugar: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and granulated sugar vigorously for about 4 minutes until the mixture is light, fluffy, and has increased in volume, which helps create a tender texture.
  4. Combine the mixtures: Gently fold the egg and sugar mixture into the chocolate batter, taking care not to overmix. This maintains the airiness of the eggs while fully incorporating all ingredients.
  5. Add chocolate chips: Stir in the chocolate chips to add pockets of melted chocolate and enhance texture.
  6. Prepare the ramekins: Grease or line two small ramekins. Divide half of the brownie batter evenly between them, spreading it flat. Create a well in the center of each and spoon in a generous amount of Nutella. Cover the Nutella with the remaining batter and smooth the tops.
  7. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 180°C (350°F) while preparing the batter and ramekins to ensure even baking.
  8. Bake the brownies: Place the filled ramekins in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes. Test doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center; the brownies should be slightly gooey as they will continue to set once cooled.
  9. Cool and serve: Allow the brownies to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. For extra indulgence, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and drizzle extra Nutella on top. Enjoy your rich, fudgy, Nutella-filled treat!

Notes

  • Use good quality chocolate and Nutella for the best flavor.
  • Do not overmix the batter to preserve its airy texture.
  • Check brownies a few minutes before the recommended baking time as ovens may vary.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute butter with a dairy-free alternative and check your chocolate for dairy content.
  • Ramekin size can be adjusted but baking time may vary accordingly.
