Ingredients:

• 1 1/4 cups hazelnuts
• 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate
• 3/4 cup unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup Nutella
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 large eggs

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Prepare Baking Pan: Grease and flour a 9-inch square baking pan, ensuring to remove any excess flour by tapping it out.

3. Toast Hazelnuts: Toast the hazelnuts until fragrant and golden brown, then remove them from the heat and let them cool slightly.

4. Grind Hazelnuts: Using a food processor, pulse the hazelnuts until coarsely ground, aiming for bits around 1/8 inch in size.

5. Melt Chocolate and Butter: Chop the bittersweet chocolate into small pieces. In a double boiler or a metal bowl set over simmering water, melt the chocolates together with the unsalted butter and Nutella. Stir occasionally until the mixture is smooth and glossy.

6. Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.

7. Combine Sugar and Chocolate: Whisk the sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until well combined.

8. Incorporate Eggs: Add the eggs to the chocolate mixture, whisking until the mixture becomes glossy and smooth.

9. Fold in Dry Ingredients: Gradually stir in the flour mixture and ground hazelnuts until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

10. Bake Brownies: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the middle of the oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a tester comes out with moist crumbs adhering to it.

11. Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, cut them into 16 squares.

12. Storage: To preserve freshness, store the brownies in an airtight container at cool room temperature, layered between sheets of wax paper, for up to 5 days.

These Gianduia Brownies are a delightful blend of flavors and textures, perfect for any occasion.
