Fudgey, chocolatey and chewy brownies that come together in one-bowl.
I think there's two types of people in the world, those who like fudgey brownies and those who like cakey brownies. Personally, I'm team fudgey. I've spent so long trying to find the perfect brownie. Thick, chewy, fudgey, sweet but rich in chocolate flavour, and most importantly, I want them to have a satisfying bite. Not crumbly, not fluffy, but dense and rich.
What makes this recipe so great is that it calls for ingredients that you probably have at home, or that you can easily find at the grocery store. Flour, chocolate, cocoa, butter and eggs.
What I also love about these brownies is that they can be served in two ways. You can eat them warm, maybe serve them with ice-cream. Or, you can pop them into the fridge for a couple hours. Trust me, let them chill. Chilling the brownies makes these brownies so chewy and fudgey, it really transforms them! I know its hard to wait, but if you like a thick and chewy brownie, you'll want to let them chill completely.
Perfect Fudge Brownies
What you'll need:
This recipe comes together in one bowl, and with ingredients that you should be able to find in your pantry.
½ cup unsalted butter
8 oz semi-sweet chocolate
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cups + 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1/4 cup dutch-processed cocoa powder
Directions:
Line a square baking pan (8x8 or 9x9) with parchment paper. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
In a heat proof bowl, add together your butter and chocolate. Heat the mixture in 30 second intervals in the microwave until the chocolate and butter have melted. Mix the butter and chocolate until you have a smooth and creamy chocolate sauce.
Into the chocolate mixture, add your brown sugar and stir.
Next, add in your 3 eggs, one at a time. Follow by adding in the vanilla. If you like a crackly top on your brownies, make sure to whip this for about 2 minutes.
Add your flour, cocoa powder and salt into the mixture. Mix gently until just combined.
Transfer the brownie batter into your lined baking pan.
Bake for approximately 25-30 minutes. To test doneness, make sure the top of the brownie cooked. A knife inserted into the middle of the brownie pan should come out crumbly.
Let your brownies cool at room temperature for 10 minutes. Enjoy them warm, OR if you like a really chewy brownie, pop them into the fridge for a couple hours before serving.
