Main brownie ingredients
Butter – is necessary for a rich, chewy brownie.
Chocolate – use both melted baking chocolate and cocoa powder.
Sugar – not only will sugar add sweetness, but it will also melt during baking and help with the chewiness.
Flour – the more flour you use, the cakier a brownie will be. Typically I use 1 cup of flour for super fudgy brownies but for this recipe, I added 1/4 cup more.
Eggs – the main structure of brownies. I also added an extra egg yolk to get more chewiness.
How to make brownies?
Step 1: Melt the chocolate and butter
Melt the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of barely simmering water. Keep stirring as it melts.
You can also use a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals stirring in between until fully melted.
Step 2: Mix in the sugar
It’s important to add the sugar while the melted chocolate is hot. The sugar will melt ensuring the baked brownies aren’t grainy.
Step 3: Mix in the eggs and vanilla
Let the chocolate mixture cool before adding the eggs so they don’t scramble. Then whisk them in really well with the vanilla.
Step 4: Mix in the flour and cocoa powder
Add the flour and cocoa powder then use a silicone spatula to fold it in just until it’s incorporated. Take care not to overmix.
Step 5: Bake
Bake the brownies for 25-30 minutes in a 350°F oven. Use the toothpick test to check for doneness. There should be a little batter and a few moist crumbs clinging to the toothpick.
