Life is so much more beautiful after digging in to a mouthful of Nutella. The chocolate-hazelnut spread is sheer ecstasy as long as you are not counting the calories. So when a recipe (source: Savory Sweet Life) has just 4 ingredients, one of which is the delightful spread and the other 3 items are basic pantry essentials, I don’t wait for a reason to bake – no excuse in the name of a birthday or an anniversary or a mother’s day and it’s ilk
PrintThe 4 Ingredient Nutella Bliss

- Yield: 4 servings 1x
Description
Indulge in these easy-to-make Nutella treats with just four ingredients, perfect for a quick and satisfying dessert.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Nutella Spread (approx 150 to 160 grams)
- 1 large egg
- 4 to 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- Peanuts or hazelnuts, as required for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and line a muffin pan or cupcake tins and set aside.
- In a bowl, combine the Nutella spread and egg. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and shiny.
- Add the flour to the mixture and stir until just combined.
- Divide the batter evenly into the prepared muffin pan or cupcake tins.
- Sprinkle peanuts or hazelnuts on top of each portion as desired.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 9-12 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick; if you prefer a gooey center, aim for the lower end of the baking time.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Check the bake with a toothpick after 9 minutes if you want a gooey center. For a firmer texture, bake for an additional 2-3 minutes. You can substitute hazelnuts for peanuts if desired. These treats are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
