Easy Nutella Shortbread Brownies recipe. Made with a hard buttery crust and topped with a fudgy and gooey brownie, this makes the best dessert idea.

Ingredients

Shortbread

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 3/4 cup salted butter, cold and cut into small pieces

Brownies

  • 1 cup salted butter
  • 7 oz Dark Chocolate, chopped (I used 85%)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup Nutella
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Combine all of the shortbread ingredients in a food processor until it resembles coarse meal.
  • Press the mixture into a 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake in the preheated oven for around 20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, place the butter and chocolate in a microwave safe bowl. Heat in the microwave in 30 second intervals, mixing until smooth.
  • Mix in the sugar. Add in the eggs 1 at a time, mixing well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla and Nutella until fully incorporated. Mix in the flour until fully combined.
  • Pour the brownie batter over the cooked shortbread and spread evenly. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before cutting into squares.
