Brownies

Warning: not for the faint-hearted.

Since posting our decadentBest Fudgy Cocoa Brownies a couple of years ago, some of you have been commenting that those are the best brownies you’ve ever tasted while also asking me about doubling that recipe to bake them in a larger pan.

Well, the good news is YES you can…all prepared in under 10 minutes with only one bowl, using ingredients I know you already have in your kitchen. No melting chocolate needed and no mixers or beaters, just like the original.

Homemade Brownies

Pure. Chocolate. Heaven.This brownie recipe guarantees that you will never go back to a boxed brownie mix, let alone try yet another brownie recipe.

The bad news? Eating the entire tray of fudge brownies in one sitting.

Simple, easy to make decadent browniespack a serious chocolate punch!

These are not only super fudgy, easy to make brownies that are ready to eat about 15 minutes after pulling them out of the oven (being careful NOT to burn yourself), each brownie comes full of melted chocolate lava chunks throughout.

They are absolutely incredibly fudgy the next day AND the day after that, and even stay fudgy after freezing them OR eating them cold out of the refrigerator up to a week later.

How to make brownies

Many of my readers have been doubling our best fudgy cocoa brownies recipeto get thicker, fatter brownies, substituting half of the white sugar for light brown sugar (as suggested in the notes section) and getting amazing results.

After passing these around to my neighbours and friends, hearing the moans coming out of each and every one of them while slowly sinking their teeth into these brownies, I knew in my heart this recipe is a winner.

The batter itself is to DIE for! Good luck NOT licking the spoon and bowl clean.

Add-In Ingredients

I threw in over 1 cup of chocolate chunks IN AND ON these (I used 45% cocoa chocolate), but you can also add:

  • crushed nuts (peanuts, walnuts, pecans, almonds, etc)
  • dried fruits (dates, blueberries, cranberries, raisins)
  • shredded coconut
  • caramel pieces
  • diced marshmallows
  • peanut butter chips

Start with ½ cup each add in, or 1 cup if using only one option.

Baking Pans

Here’s where things got interesting during testing. We used three different baking pans, and they all came out perfect. It all depends on your preference of thickness:

  1. A 7×11-inch pan yielded thicker brownies (about 2-inches thick), baked for 40-45 minutes and slightly uneven in consistency (fudgier in the centre and set around the edges).
  2. An 8×12-inch pan yielded the perfect brownies and MY personal favourite (just over 1-inch thick), baked for just under 25 minutes and resulted in just the right thickness and consistency, while still ooey, gooey and chewy.
  3. A 9×13-inch pan resulted in thinner brownies (about ¾ of an inch) and even consistency throughout. Baked for around 18 minutes. Perfect texture but I prefer slightly thicker pieces.

Please note: some readers find using darker or black pans comment that baking goods bake a lot darker and drier underneath, while readers commenting using lighter pans yield better more even and better results.

DO YOU SEE THAT CRACKLY TOP?

The smell coming out of your ovens will be pure sweet heaven. Your house will smell incredible for hours after baking. If only the internet would design smell-er-net.

Wait about 15 minutes to slice these up, or up to an hour. The longer you wait, the ‘more set’ they will be and the slab will kinda sink into itself before slicing.

TIPS AND TRICKS:

  1. Do not over beat your batter once the flour and cocoa powder are added. That creates air pockets in the batter which will give you cake-like textured brownies.
  2. Please try not to over bake them. I liked mine at exactly 23 minutes in an 8×12-inch pan. You can go a little bit over if you like them set a bit more, but I don’t recommend it if you’re looking for the fudgiest brownies in the world. Remember, they will continue to bake slightly in the hot pan once pulled out of the oven. I use baking paper so I can pull them out of the pan easier after about 10-15 minutes from the oven (use your own discernment here), and place them GENTLY on a cooling rack.
  3. I bake my brownies on the top shelf in my oven. The middle shelf cooks them a lot faster, slightly burns them on the top and dries them out a little. Your oven may work differently.

PRINT SAVE

Prep: 10 minutes mins

Cook: 25 minutes mins

Total: 35 minutes mins

Serves: 16 slices

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter melted and cooled
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 ¼ cups white sugar
  • 1 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 4 eggs large, at room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder good quality
  • 7 oz large chocolate chips or roughly chopped chocolate

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 175°C | 350°F.

  • Lightly grease an 8x12-inch baking pan* with cooking oil spray. Line with parchment paper (or baking paper); set aside.

  • Combine melted butter, oil and sugars together in a medium-sized bowl. Whisk well to combine. Add the eggs and vanilla; beat until lighter in colour (another minute).

  • Sift in flour, cocoa powder and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until JUST combined (do NOT over beat as doing so well affect the texture of your brownies).

  • Fold in ¾ of the chocolate pieces.

  • Pour batter into prepared pan, smoothing the top out evenly, and top with remaining chocolate pieces.

  • Bake for 25-30 minutes for just under-done brownies (fudgier texture) or until the centre of the brownies no longer jiggles and is JUST set to the touch.

    OR 35-40 minutes if you like your brownies well set and firm.

    NOTE: Brownies will continue baking and set in the hot pan out of the oven. If testing with a toothpick, the toothpick should come out dirty for fudge-textured brownies.

  • After 15-20 minutes, carefully remove them out of the pan and allow to cool to room temperature before slicing into 16 brownies. They set while they cool.

    ENJOY!

OPTIONAL ADD INS:

  • Crushed walnuts, peanuts, almonds, pecans, etc. Chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, shredded coconut, dried fruit (cranberries, raisins, etc)

STORING:

  • Store at room temperature for 3 days, or refrigerator for up to 5 days. These brownies can also be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight the refrigerator and bring to room temperature before serving OR reheat in the microwave.

Notes

*For thicker brownies, bake in a 7x11-inch pan for 40-45 minutes. For thinner brownies, bake in a 9x13-inch pan for 18-20 minutes.

PLEASE NOTE:An 8x12-inch pan bakes the most perfect brownies -- thickness and texture.

TIPS AND TRICKS:

  1. Do NOT over beat your batter once the flour and cocoa powder are added. That creates air pockets in the batter which will give you cake-like textured brownies.
  2. Please try not to over bake them. Set a timer if you need too. I like mine at exactly 23 minutes in an 8x12-inch pan. You can go a little bit over if you like them set a bit more, but I don't recommend it if you're looking for the fudgiest brownies in the world. Remember, they will continue to bake slightly in the hot pan once pulled out of the oven,
  3. I bake my brownies on the top shelf in the oven. I find the middle shelf cooks them a lot faster, slightly burns them on the top and dries them out.
