In a heatproof bowl, microwave 1/2 cup butter to melt. Add chocolate, stir til melted, add sugar and cocoa powder. Stir to blend with wooden spoon

Whisk in eggs, vanilla and salt. Add flour and stir til smooth. Spoon batter evenly into the cups

Using the tip of the wooden spoon, make a small depression in each portion of batter. Spoon 1/2 tsp Nutella into each hole, using a toothpick - make a swirl

Bake until a toothpick inserted into the brownie part comes out with just a few moist crumbs, about 15minutes
