    I made these yesterday as a last minute dessert for a gathering we were hosting. They were easy to prepare with ingredients I had on hand. The result was delicious. My family likes fudgier brownies and these were very fudgy and dense. They had a nice crumb to them. The peanut butter-hazelnut mixture added a slight peanut taste though I had a hard time detecting the hazelnut taste others who ate them said they could taste the hazelnuts as well. They did need an additional 10 minutes in my oven to fully bake. This is a recipe that I will be making again. Next time I might add some chocolate chips or some chopped nuts for added texture. Overall, a great recipe!

    I made these tonight after considerable reading and researching peanut butter brownie recipes. The first one I made was Martha Stewar'ts peanut butter swirl brownies. They were more cake like and high, as well as more dry. Even though these were the second choice of the two, I think I much preferred these! I did make this change which the Martha Stewart recipe had. I did NOT mix the peanut butter hazelnut mixture into the chocolate brownie but rather I placed it on the top and than took a knife and dragged it through in a swirl pattern. I also added extra cocoa powder to make 1 cup as reviewers stated, and I used three eggs rather than 4. Always check brownies and under bake so that they remain moist rather than died out. I kept checking increasing to 4-5 mins and adding if needed towards the end. I think these are much tastier than Martha Stewart's and a lot easier to prepare!

    This is the first time I've ever made brownies from scratch. The recipe came out good and everyone enjoyed them. However, the peanut butter taste was very subtle and the Nutella taste was non-existent. So next time, I'll look for a recipe that doesn't include these items.

    I think the flavor combination seems great just looking at the recipe, but the flavors in the finished product aren't pronounced. I would like a more chocolatey brownie. Maybe next time I'll add a bit more cocoa, add chocolate chips, and toasted hazelnuts.

    Everytime I've made these, they come out perfectly. Fudgy, chocolately, peanut buttery, hazelnutty goodness. Whenever I bring them to any type of gathering, I get RAVE reviews on them. They are usually the hit of the day.

    I bought Nutella this week at the grocery in anticipation of making these this week. :

    After reading the reviews for these brownies I was very surprised at how dry mine turned out. I made them exactly as the recipe said, but they were very dry. The flavor was good, but we ended up throwing out most of the pan because of how dry they turned out.

    After reading all the reviews and the ingredients for this recipe, I had great expectations for these brownies. However, they proved to be rather tasteless. I would recommend not using both peanut butter and nutella, just one or the other.

    They were really good for a chocolate craving! Probably one of the best brownies I have ever eat!!
    I also added a few tea spoons of instant hazelnut coffee powder.. mm mmm :D

    Warning: Don't be surprised if you end up eating the WHOLE BATCH.
