Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (for drizzle)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for drizzle)
How to Make Chocolate Fudge Brownies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the granulated sugar and cocoa powder until well combined.
- Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then whisk in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the 1 cup of chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- While the brownies are baking, prepare the chocolate drizzle. In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Once the brownies are done, allow them to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- After the brownies have cooled, drizzle the melted chocolate mixture over the top, allowing it to set before cutting into squares.
Tips for the Best Results
- Make sure to measure your ingredients accurately for the best texture.
- Don’t overbake; these brownies should be fudgy, not cake-like.
- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting to ensure clean edges.
- For an extra indulgent touch, sprinkle some flaky sea salt on top of the chocolate drizzle.
Easy Variations
- Add 1 cup of chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans) to the batter for added crunch.
- Swirl in some peanut butter or Nutella for a delicious twist.
- Top with fresh berries or ice cream for a dessert that’s out of this world.
- Substitute half the chocolate chips with white chocolate chips for a different flavor profile.
What to Serve With It
- A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a classic pairing
- Fresh berries for a burst of freshness
- A drizzle of caramel sauce for extra sweetness
- Whipped cream for added creaminess
Storage and Reheating
Store leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to a week. To reheat, pop a brownie in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds until warm.
