Chocolate and hazelnut brownies

Indulge yourself with these rich and delicious chocolate and hazelnut brownies. This easy-to-follow recipe combines the delightful flavors of dark chocolate and hazelnuts to create a crowd-pleasing dessert that's perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients:

2/3 cup butter
150g
1 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
120g
1 cup hazelnuts
120g
1 cup dark chocolate
230g
3 eggs
150g
1 cup sugar
200g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
1 tsp baking powder
5g
1 tsp salt
5g

Instructions:

1. Preheat and Prepare:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
2. Melt Butter and Chocolate:
- In a heatproof bowl, melt the butter and dark chocolate together. You can do this either by microwaving in 30-second increments, stirring in between, or by using a double boiler. Once melted and smooth, set aside to cool slightly.
3. Chop Hazelnuts:
- Roughly chop the hazelnuts and set aside. You can toast them lightly for extra flavor if you prefer (about 5-7 minutes in the preheating oven).
4. Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
5. Mix Wet Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
6. Combine Chocolate Mixture:
- Slowly pour the slightly cooled chocolate and butter mixture into the egg mixture, stirring constantly until well blended.
7. Incorporate Dry Ingredients:
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Avoid over-mixing.
8. Add Hazelnuts:
- Gently fold in the chopped hazelnuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
9. Bake:
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (be careful not to overbake; brownies should be fudgy).
10. Cool and Serve:
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, lift them out using the parchment overhang, cut into squares, and enjoy!

Tips:

- Use high-quality dark chocolate for a more intense chocolate flavor.

- You can toast the hazelnuts beforehand to enhance their nutty taste.

- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them to ensure clean slices.

- Store the brownies in an airtight container to keep them fresh for longer.

- Feel free to add a handful of chocolate chips or chunks for extra gooeyness.

There you have it — delectable chocolate and hazelnut brownies that are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. Serve them warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or enjoy them on their own. Happy baking!
