Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup chocolate frosting (store-bought or homemade)
How to Make Chocolate Fudge Brownies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the granulated sugar until well combined.
- Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
- Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread 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.
- Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
- Spread the chocolate frosting evenly over the top of the brownies while they are still warm.
- Let the brownies cool completely before slicing into squares and serving.
Tips for the Best Results
- Use high-quality cocoa powder for a richer chocolate flavor.
- Avoid overbaking; the brownies should be soft in the center.
- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting to achieve clean slices.
- If using homemade frosting, allow it to cool to a spreadable consistency.
Easy Variations
- Add a cup of chopped nuts for a crunchy texture.
- Swirl in peanut butter or Nutella for a delicious twist.
- Mix in chocolate chips for extra gooeyness.
- Top with a sprinkle of sea salt for a sweet and salty contrast.
What to Serve With It
- A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a classic pairing.
- Fresh berries for a touch of tartness.
- Whipped cream for added creaminess.
- A drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra indulgent treat.
