Discover the divine pleasure of sinking your teeth into the fudgy-est, most chewy, and delightfully moist (yes I said moist) chocolate brownies you’ve ever encountered. After tirelessly experimenting with numerous recipes, I can confidently say that these brownies are the epitome of perfection. Gone are the days of settling for partially satisfying treats, as these brownies effortlessly surpass all expectations.
Picture this: a tantalizingly crispy top, accompanied by delectably crisp edges, all enveloping a soft, gooey center that retains its heavenly texture even after a night’s rest. These brownies are a testament to the ideal combination of contrasting textures, a truly harmonious blend that will leave your taste buds singing with joy.
The secret behind these irresistible brownies lies in the masterful utilization of chocolate. Unlike other recipes that rely solely on cocoa powder or chocolate chips, I take it a step further. These carefully crafted brownie mix incorporate both cocoa powder and melted chocolate, resulting in a mesmerizing fudge-like consistency in the middle and a delectable crispiness along the edges.
By harnessing the best of both worlds, I have unlocked the true essence of chocolatey perfection. The rich flavor of the cocoa powder intertwines flawlessly with the velvety smoothness of melted chocolate, creating a symphony of taste that is simply unparalleled.
Prepare to embark on a culinary adventure that will transport you to chocolate heaven. This recipe unveils the secrets to achieving the ultimate chocolate brownie experience, leaving you craving more with every single bite.
So, why settle for ordinary brownies when you can savor the extraordinary? Indulge in these unrivaled chocolate brownies today and elevate your dessert game to extraordinary heights. Your taste buds will thank you!
Make Them Festive
I chose to use M&M Peanut Butter Milk Chocolate M&M’s in, and on top of the brownies to make them festive for the holiday. However, you can skip these completely or you can substitute with any of the below to make them festive for any holiday.
- Easter
- 4th of July:
- Christmas:
- Mint M&M
- Candy Canes
INGREDIENTS
- ½ cup unsalted butter 1 stick
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1¼ cup white sugar
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 4 large eggs at room temperature
- 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
- ¾ tsp salt
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 5 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup peanut butter M&M optional
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350°F
- Lightly grease an 8×12-inch baking pan with cooking oil spray and line with parchment paper and set aside.
- Combine melted butter, oil and sugars together in a medium-sized bowl. Whisk well to combine. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until mixed well. (1-2 minutes)
- Melt chocolate chips. You can do this by using the melt feature on the microwave and stirring every few seconds until fully melted or you can heat 2 inches of water up and place a bowl in the hot water with chocolate chips and stir until they are melted.
- Mix melted chocolate in with the mixture until fully combined.
- Sift in flour, cocoa powder and salt. Fold the ingredients in until combined but don’t over mix.
- Chop up half of the M&M and fold in.
- Pour batter into prepared pan, smoothing the top out evenly, and top with remaining chocolate pieces.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes for a more fudgy texture. Cook for 35 minutes if you don’t like them fudgy or chewy.
NOTES
- You can use 1 cup butter if desired. It makes it taste slightly different but keeps the texture and is really great.
- Let brownies cool before cutting or they will fall apart.
- When cutting, the knife will not be clean like firm brownies, this is okay. The brownies are cooked enough to be safe to eat.
