D is for Danger (Nutella Brownies)

Every so often a recipe comes along that requires immediate attention, as in, drop everything that you are doing and make me instantly.

When these Nutella Fudge Brownies popped into my Google Reader from Savory Sweet Life’s RSS feed, I knew I wouldn’t hold out for long. Requiring just four ingredients –four!– and all of them pantry staples around here (well, the hazelnuts I keep in my freezer), it was pretty much impossible to say “no” to these brownies.

And why would you want to, anyway? They are dense and delicious, addictive in the best of ways, and simple enough to bake with kids –or at eleven pm in a sleepy stupor.

The recipe is small, making just twelve mini brownie bites, but I think that was planned. These brownies are dangerous with a capital D and half a dozen can easily disappear like that.

So here’s the story: the lovely Alice of the sensational Savory Sweet Life blog, has the recipe for these Nutella Fudge Brownies. You’re going to have to head over there to get it, and I’m doing you a favour in sending you there because her photos are stunning. If you are ho-humming looking at mine, Alice’s shots will have you lunging for the ingredients before the post is read through to the end.
