Description
These Homemade Fudgy Brownies are perfectly fudgy, have crisp edges and that delicious shiny, crackly top. These brownies can be mixed in one bowl in a few minutes and take only 30 minutes to bake.
Ingredients
- 1 stick unsalted butter (1/2 cup), cut into small pieces
- 4 ounce semi-sweet chocolate bar, coarsely chopped and divided
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder (55 grams)
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar (310 grams)
- 2 large eggs
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour (85 grams)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (3 grams)
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8×8 pan with parchment paper.
2. In a bowl add the butter and 2 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate. Microwave in 30 second increments, stirring in between, until butter and chocolate are melted. Alternatively, you can bring a small pot of water to a boil, then turn off the heat. Set a bowl with the butter and chocolate on top of the pot and stir until the mixture is melted.
3. Add the melted butter and chocolate to a large mixing bowl. Add sugar and cocoa powder and whisk to combine. Add in the eggs and whisk to combine. Add the flour, salt, remaining 2 ounces chocolate and ½ cup chocolate chips. Use a rubber spatula or wooden spoon to fold the ingredients together until combined. The batter will be thick.
4. Spread batter evenly in prepared pan.
5. Bake in preheated oven for 28-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center has only a few moist crumbs on it.
Notes
Line your pan with parchment paper. It makes clean up a breeze and makes it easy to get the brownies easy to remove from the pan after baking.
Add nuts to the brownie batter, if desired. Walnuts or pecans work great in brownie batter.
Don’t overbake the brownies. They will be done when a toothpick inserted into the center pulls out just a few moist crumbs.
