Nutella Peanut Butter Brownie Bites (5 Ingredients)
These Nutella Peanut Butter Brownie Bites are cute, fudgy, and garnished with peanuts! They use only 5 ingredients to make.
I love to read. Cook books, novels, blogs, even the back of the cereal box. It’s just something I’ve always enjoyed, for much longer than I’ve loved to bake. It saddens me though, how reading novels has become such a lost form of entertainment. I could sit with my Kindle for hours, plowing through an entire series in a day. Books are just so engrossing, allowing the brain to expand and create an entire world in your mind. It’s like a television where you have to think.
I say this because of my lack of posting. It’s not that I’ve been neglecting you guys, I’ve just been sucked in the world created by Suzanne Collins in her three novels, The Hunger Games. I usually don’t read all the “teen” books, but my aunt Lori suggested these and I had been hearing about them so I figured why not. Oh, my, gosh. They are so good. Please, if you like to read, enter her world and learn all about Panem and Katniss and Peeta and Gale. You’ll love it.
Anyways, this isn’t a book blog. We’re here to talk about food. Specifically: brownies. With Nutella. And peanut butter. 5 ingredients, probably all of which you already have in your cabinet. 3 ingredients if for some reason you don’t like peanut butter. Their heaven in a bite (or two, if you don’t shove whole brownies into your mouth like my family). If you don’t have a mini muffin pan, go get one. These chewy, gooey bites of yummy can’t wait any longer, they want into your mouth ASAP. Go get ’em tiger.
(LOL. Like my attempt to be artsy with the peanut butter smeared on the plate?)

Keep up the reading, it opens up such an amazing world to us all.
May only be 5 ingredients, but it is a massive dessert sensation. Great job!
These look like something I would be addicted to. Seriously. I think I need these.
These are wonderful! Keep up the great recipes. Your blog is so fun to read. Can’t wait to hear where you’re going to go college.
I just made these brownies today. They turned out awful! :( I don’t know where I went wrong, but they seem a little less sweet, and the peanut butter over powers the taste of the nutella – chocolatey flavor.
I’m so sorry they didn’t turn out well for you! I sent you an email, but if others have these issues, try baking them a little less to maintain that gooey chocolateyness we all love, and use less peanut butter if it’s too overpowering!
Oh my goodness these were incredible! Thanks for the recipe! [:
Glad you enjoyed them!! :)
Oh my these sound incredible. Thank you for sharing this delicious sounding recipe.
