Ingredients
- 4 extra large eggs
- pinch of fine sea salt
- 1 cup Nutella
- powdered sugar
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Line the base and sides of an 8 in. square cake pan with parchment paper.
Put eggs and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat until they have more than doubled in size and are pale, aerated and mousse like (this will take about 5 minutes).
Measure the Nutella into a microwave-safe jug, filling it up to the 1 cup mark, and microwave for 1 minute until warm and slightly runny.
Stir the heated Nutella, then pour it in a continuous thin stream onto the eggs, whisking as you go, until all the Nutella is combined.
Pour this mixture into your prepared cake tin and bake for 17-20 minutes. The top will be dry but the middle still wet; this is fine as they will firm up after baking.
Leave to cool completely in the tin; the mixture will shrink away from the sides a little as it does. Once cool, cut it into 16 squares, arrange them on a plate and dust with a little icing sugar pressed through a fine tea strainer or sieve.
