Nutella Sea Salt Brownies; thanks to Melt for letting me review these velvety soft chocolate brownies swirled with sweet Nutella and flaky sea salt!
[GIFTED]
If the wildly unexpected world in which we have found ourselves in 2020 has brought us anything, it’s a wealth of exciting new at-home treats. From online classes that teach you the art of fresh pasta-making with an Italian chef, to a whole posh plant-based 3-course dinner delivered right to your door.
Today’s post is about just that. A creative new way to enjoy a delicious dessert, and practice a new skill while you do it.
Let’s talk about these Nutella Sea Salt Brownies.
Silky-soft chocolate brownies, a whisper of crispness on top, melting into a Nutella dream. Flakes of sea salt mingling with that chocolate hazelnut spread to create a heavenly harmony of sweet and savoury in each mouthful.
These Nutella Sea Salt Brownies are the same as you’ll find in the cosy 1970s haven of Melt.
Melt, if you aren’t already a fan, is Aberdeen’s first (and only) grilled cheese shop. Over the past couple of years this iconic eatery has upgraded into a full-blown cheese restaurant. Now you can not only stuff yourself silly with big cheesy toasties, but with crispy halloumi sticks, baked bruleed brie and melting camembert. However, they have also built quite the reputation for their desserts too. Big retro milkshakes that pair perfectly with their hot sandwiches and, of course, their brownies.
Stirring peanut butter and jam into their classic base, stuffing batter with cookie dough chunks, or blobbing Biscoff into a vegan brownie. With all manner of creative new flavours popping up in their repertoire, it all began with the Nutella Sea Salt Brownies.
No longer are these strictly reserved for picking up in store, now you can make Melt’s Nutella Sea Salt Brownies in your own kitchen!
With their new bake-at-home brownie kits, you can devour a whole batch in place of your usual individual order. After all, the only thing better than brownies is more brownies.
You can pick up this gorgeous new baking kit for yourself or as a lovely gift.
The kit contains:
- Full ingredients list and recipe for the Nutella Sea Salt Brownies;
- Rice flour;
- Brown sugar;
- Nutella; and
- Sea salt,
simply grab yourself some salted butter and a few eggs and you’ll be ready to bake!
It was delightful to find that the recipe, like all good recipes, walks you through each step to make sure the end result is nothing but delicious. All the ingredients provided in the kit are the perfect measurement, so you don’t have to worry about it. The brownies take very little hands-on time to whip up too! Stick them in the oven for 20-30 minutes, then simply cool and chill them before slicing.
When finished, you’ll have 16-20 beautiful brown squares, marbled with Nutella and sprinkled with flaky sea salt. You can keep them in the fridge for extra delicious chewiness, out on your worktop for optimum silky softness, or even eaten warm with some ice cream for a perfect quick dessert. For Nutella lovers and self-confessed chocoholics, these brownies are ideal, offering up the rich sweetness and subtle nutty notes of everyone’s favourite chocolate spread.
As a baker, and just someone who really loves chocolate, I would thoroughly recommend this bake-at-home brownie kit. For just £15 you’ll get a full batch of Melt’s banging Nutella Sea Salt Brownies. It’ll even help hone those new-found baking skills born in lockdown.
You can pre-order your kit from tonight – and they will be available for collection from Melt, for yourself or a loved one from, 10 July!
