This brownie recipe delivers a mouthwatering result every time. Soft, gooey in the center with crisp edges, it’s the ultimate chocolate indulgence.

Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter

1 1/4 cups granulated sugar

1 cup packed brown sugar

4 large eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup cocoa powder

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chunks

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl or in a saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, set it aside to cool slightly.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter. Stir until smooth and fully incorporated.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chunks.
  7. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs.
  9. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares.

  • Espresso brownies can be made by adding a tablespoon of instant coffee granules.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to 1 week.
