What You’ll Need

Here are the ingredients you’ll need to make Nutella brownies at home. See the recipe card located at the bottom of the post for full details and instructions.

all-purpose flour– All purpose flour is the main dry ingredient for brownies.
kosher salt– Kosher salt is a coarse salt. I prefer using it in my cooking and baking.
unsweetened cocoa powder– I prefer Hershey’s Special Dark if you can find it.
salted butter– I generally use salted butter for my cooking and baking.
dark brown sugar– You’ll see light and brown sugar available in the brown sugar section. I like the dark brown sugar for these brownies.
granulated sugar- Granulated sugar is a fine sugar commonly used in cookies, brownies and cakes.
canola oil– Canola oil is part of the wet ingredients for the brownie recipe.
large eggs– For consistency, I use large eggs for all of my cooking and baking.
pure vanilla extract– For best tasting results use pure vanilla extract.
chocolate chips– Use your favorite chocolate chips, I use milk or semi-sweet.
Nutella– Find Nutella near the peanut butter and jelly at the grocery store. It’s a chocolate hazelnut spread that is especially delicious with brownies.
