Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast for about 10-15 minutes, or until they are fragrant and the skins start to crack. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. Rub the hazelnuts together in a kitchen towel to remove most of the skins. Roughly chop both the hazelnuts and pecans, then set them aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the milk chocolate and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely melted and smooth. Allow to cool slightly.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, and cocoa powder until well combined.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs. Slowly mix the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the eggs, stirring constantly to avoid cooking the eggs.
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture into the wet mixture, stirring until well combined.
- Gently fold the chopped hazelnuts and pecans into the batter.
- Pour the mixture into a greased or parchment-lined 9x9-inch (23x23 cm) baking pan. Spread the batter evenly with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs (avoid overbaking for a fudgy texture).
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cool, cut them into squares.
- Serve and enjoy your delicious Chocolate Nut Brownies! Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate and cocoa powder to enhance the rich, chocolatey flavor of your brownies.
- Toast the hazelnuts and pecans before adding them to the batter to bring out their natural oils and deepen their flavor.
- Let the melted butter and chocolate mixture cool slightly before adding the eggs to prevent them from cooking in the warm mixture.
- Be cautious not to overmix the batter once the flour is added, as this can result in tough brownies.
- Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, ensuring they are fudgy rather than dry.
These Choc Nut Brownies are a delicious harmony of chocolatey decadence and nutty crunch. Perfect for sharing, these brownies will surely become a beloved favorite.
