♥ Chocolate Hazelnut Brownie with Cream Cheese & Ferrero Rocher Topping ♥

Chocolate and hazelnut? The only thing that comes to my mind is Nutella! The Nutella World Day has gone. But I still wanted to catch it up with some delicious chocolate hazelnut goodie.

Umm... What else is the best to go with chocolate? Of course it is my all time favourite to whip up cream cheese frosting! And using a lower calorie version just because of the Natvia Icing Mix!

Golden...Chocolate...And...Should be Ferrero Rocher that makes the best topping!

These mini muffins are actually Nutella brownies. It is not necessary to buy Nutella, just a simple chocolate hazelnut spread will do. I promise, the recipe is super duper easy and also make the perfect gift for this Valentine's Day!
