Directions

How to Bake the Ultimate Fudgy Chocolate Brownies

Pre-heat & Prepare
- Preheat your oven to 180 °C (350°F).
- Line a square baking tin (e.g. 22 cm) with parchment paper or grease it well.
Melt Chocolate & Butter
- In a bowl over simmering water (or double-boiler), melt the butter and chopped chocolate together until smooth. Let it cool slightly.
Mix Wet Ingredients
- In a separate bowl, whisk sugar and eggs until light and fluffy.
- Add the melted chocolate-butter mixture and vanilla extract; mix gently to combine.
Add Dry Ingredients
- Sift in flour, cocoa powder, baking powder (if using), and salt. Fold gently until just combined — don’t overmix.
- If using, fold in nuts or chocolate chunks.
Bake
- Pour the batter into the prepared tin and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs (not dry).
Cool & Cut
- Remove from oven and let the brownies cool completely in the tin for best texture.
- Use the parchment to lift out the brownie slab, then cut into squares.
Serve
- Enjoy as is, or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a dusting of powdered sugar, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for extra decadence.

✅ Tips & Variations

For a fudgier brownie, reduce the flour slightly and increase chocolate or butter ratio.
For a cakelike brownie, use the full teaspoon of baking powder and don’t overbake.
Add nuts (walnuts, pecans), chocolate chunks, or mini marshmallows for texture and variety.
Use high-quality dark chocolate (70% cocoa or more) for richer flavour.
Let the brownies cool fully before cutting — this helps them set and gives clean edges.
