Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 tablespoon red food coloring
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup Nutella
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until glossy.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition.
4. Stir in the vanilla extract, red food coloring, and white vinegar.
5. Add the cocoa powder, flour, and salt, then fold gently until just combined.
6. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
7. Slightly warm the Nutella, then spoon it over the top of the batter.
8. Use a knife to swirl the Nutella through the brownie batter.
9. Bake for 28 to 34 minutes, until the edges are set and the center is slightly soft.
10. Cool completely before slicing into 9 brownies.
Notes
Do not overmix the batter once the flour goes in, or the brownies can turn dense in the wrong way instead of staying tender and fudgy.
For the cleanest slices, let the brownies cool fully and chill them for 20 to 30 minutes before cutting.
