Nutella Chameleon Cold Brew Coffee Brownies & Coffee and Cold Brew Filter Giveaway

Published on July 1, 2016 By Emily. Updated on August 8, 2020

This post is sponsored by Madesco Labs, who also provided me with samples of their coffee filters in exchange for my sharing about their products.  As always, the opinions expressed are my own.

Last week I posted my review of Madesco’s cold brew coffee filters.  We’re still enjoying using the filters and have jars of both regular and decaf in the refrigerator at this very moment.  I mentioned in passing that Madesco has also developed an awesome e-book featuring ways to use cold brew coffee in cooking.  There are recipes for pancakes, ribs, chili and tons of desserts.

My family has two birthdays and two wedding anniversaries in June and since we were headed to Maine last week to visit, I opted to bring some dessert to celebrate.  There were so many tempting recipes to choose from in the e-book: ice cream, coffee cake, chocolate cake, brownies and even something called “sausage cake”.  Really, you need to download the free Madesco e-book!

I opted to make the Nutella Chameleon Cold Brew Coffee Brownies, because Nutella + coffee + chocolate is a perfect combination in my book.  Overall the recipe wasn’t too different from other brownies I’ve made in the past, but I did have a couple minor issues with it.  The recipe calls for the unsalted butter to be softened, but since the butter gets  melted in step 3, softening really isn’t necessary (which is perfect if you’re like me and always forget to soften your butter).  I did a little research to convert the 1/2 cup of unsweetened chocolate into 3 ounces, because my unsweetened chocolate bars were a lot easier to measure that way.  There’s also a typo in the e-book recipe – the ingredients list said “baking soda”, but the instructions called for “baking powder”.  It should say soda in both locations.  Lastly, I substituted standard granulated sugar for the caster sugar the recipe listed, because I’m cheap and lazy.

Despite my pickiness with the recipe and my changes, the brownies turned out great! They were thicker and fudgier than brownies I often make and really rich.  They were a little messy due to the Nutella, but that made them all the more fun to eat. As expected, the Nutella, coffee and chocolate all mingled together beautifully.  I would definitely make these brownies again and look forward to trying other recipes from the Madesco e-book.

    Loooove cold brew, it is so much smoother and less acidic. I wish there was a hot coffee version of cold brew, something that is less acidic, is there?

    • Emily says

      I think it really depends on the coffee you use and how you brew it. I don’t drink a lot of coffee, but I think people generally say that pour over or AeroPress coffee is less acidic than traditional drip.

    I love my cold brew coffee with half and half and a dash of vanilla. Otherwise, I like using coffee in place of water in chocolate cake (:

I don't have clear words to express my feelings ab I don't have clear words to express my feelings about the state of the world lately. As a teacher and a mother, it has been extra difficult this week to be fully present in my roles without thinking about innocent lives that should have had longer on Earth. How what has happened in each of the many mass shootings this year can happen anywhere. If you are feeling sad and frustrated too, you are not alone.

I don't have answers, but I'm trying to take care of myself and my biological and school families. I'm saying "I love you" a lot to my children and my students. I'm closely following and sharing the work of @everytown while contacting my state and federal representatives and the president. I'm going for walks and getting fresh air and trying not to overload on news. I'm sharing good resources in my stories as I see them.
UPDATE: the giveaway is now CLOSED. Congrats @aloh UPDATE: the giveaway is now CLOSED. Congrats @alohr3!

 @thelazygenius' second book, The Lazy Genius Kitchen, is finally here and I'm so excited! I don't purchase many books, but I pre-ordered this last July because I knew it would be right up my alley and then I pre-ordered a second copy because I knew that I'd want to give one away.

Author Kendra Adachi has been one of my favorite voices in recent years. Her principles (shared through her first book, The Lazy Genius Podcast and her Instagram) have helped me focus my priorities and give myself more grace. 

This book is NOT a cookbook (it has just 2 recipes), it is a kitchen guide - to help you "have what you need, use what you have, and enjoy it like never before". It is beautiful (full color!) and thoughtful.

I'm very excited to send this book to one of you.

TO ENTER: Leave a comment below with one of your greatest kitchen struggles. 
I'll draw a winner at 8 pm on Friday, May 6.

This morning we took advantage of @massmoca's Berk This morning we took advantage of @massmoca's Berkshire Teacher and Social Worker Appreciation Day free admission. After enjoying the student Art Invitational exhibit, the 4 of us took in several of the other galleries. Mass MoCA always impresses and it was delightful to be able to be out in the world with my kids.

Today I finally found my way into @plantconnector, Today I finally found my way into @plantconnector, in its new location on Main Street in North Adams. The shop is incredible - the displays are great and the plants are delightful. There's a refill station with bottles and jars for soaps, detergents and other products, a terrarium bar, and an abundance of sustainable and beautiful products. I'm now in the process of pondering who I can purchase Plant Connector gifts for in the coming months.
