Caramel and Nutella Brownies

Is Butterscotch the Same As Caramel?

Butterscotch and caramel are two very different things.

Caramel is a mix of white granulated sugar, heavy whipping cream, butter, and a dash of vanilla.

Butterscotch, is made with brown sugar instead of granulated sugar.

Is Nutella Made With Hazelnuts?

Nutella is described as a chocolate and hazelnut spread, although it is mostly made of sugar and palm oil.

The ingredients do include hazelnuts.

How Long Will Brownies Keep?

Fresh brownies will keep up to 4 days at room temperature.

Brownies should be well wrapped in plastic or foil and left uncut for a longer storage period.
