Nutella Brownies Faq’s
Let the brownies cool in the baking pan for about 1 to 2 hours at room temperature. This allows the residual heat to dissipate and the brownies to set.
Yes you can use another store-bought chocolate spread, however the taste and texture might vary.
No, there is no reason to keep them in refrigerator, you might want to store them in airtight container with a lid on the countertop. You can store freshly baked brownies at room temperature but if you plan to store them for more extended periods, refrigeration is a better option. If you want to keep brownies for several months, freezing is a great choice, as it helps maintain their freshness and taste. Just be sure to wrap them well to prevent freezer burn.
