Nutella Caramel Fudge Brownies

I know – who do I think I am posting two Nutella recipes in a row? I just cannot help myself! I have no idea how I have somehow lumped Nutella and the fall season together. Something about this cocoa hazelnut spread just has my taste buds singing! I also needed a reason to use up the left over caramel sauce from my caramel corn cupcakes.  Picture thick fudgey brownies swirled with caramel and nutella then topped with even more caramel and nutella.

I believe there are two kinds of people in the dessert world. Those who like fluffy cake like brownies and those who like thick gooey almost under baked brownies. I, my friends, relate to the second group of brownie lovers. I have never been a fan of fluffy brownies. When my brownies are gooey soft and melty they are perfection. If these were not already so sweet I would suggest topping with gelato. BUT these are already such a treat. So much chocolate. So much nutella. So much delicious caramel.
