So many apologies for not posting recently, but I hope you will forgive me when you see what I’ve got for you today 🙂
My friend posted a recipe link on Facebook and I just couldn’t resist…
I made them but found they were a little too squidgey for my liking and the modification began 🙂
They are so simple to make and ideal for a kids baking project. Small person whipped them up in a matter of minutes.
200g of nutella*
2 medium eggs
200g flour
20cl milk
*nutella is of course a brand name, but most supermarkets will sell this as chocolate hazelnut spread.
Put all the ingredients in a large bowl and mush them all together until well mixed.
This is where you can add a handful of whatever you like to give it a little texture. I halved the mixture and added a handful of crushed peanuts to one half and a handful of sugar balls ( more usual on the top of cakes I know, but they make a really fun multicoloured interior for small people)
Stir any of your extra ingredients into the mixture and it’s ready to be baked.
If, like me, you have two flavours but only one want to do one bake, just line your tin with paper as normal, but make a peak fold in the middle and voila, as they say in these parts, you can fill up each half with a different mixture.
Bake at 200 degrees for around 20 minutes, until you can poke it with a cocktail stick and it comes out with a tiny smudge of mixture on it. You have to make sure you don’t over bake this as it is supposed to be slightly gooey in the centre.
Leave to cool in the tin for 15 minutes then transfer onto a cooling rack. As tempting as it is to dive straight in it’s best to try and wait at least 30 minutes so they don’t crumble too much when you cut them.
When cooled, cut into bars or squares and store in an airtight tin.
