Fudgy Brownie Recipe

This easy fudgy brownie recipe from Turkuaz Kitchen creates rich, gooey brownies with deep chocolate flavor. Perfectly moist and chewy, they’re a satisfying treat for any chocolate lover.

Ingredients Needed:

• 1 3/4 cups (300g) semisweet chocolate chips
• 1 1/4 sticks (140g) butter
• 3/4 cup (96g) flour
• 1/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• Pinch of salt
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
• 1/8 cup (25g) light brown sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 tbsp (28g) olive oil

How To Make Fudgy Brownie:

1. Preheat the Oven: Set the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking pan with butter and line it with two pieces of parchment paper, letting some parchment hang over the edges for easy removal.
2. Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. Melt Chocolate and Butter: Place the chocolate chips and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring each time, until smooth and fully melted. Allow to cool slightly.
4. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, vanilla extract, and olive oil until well mixed.
5. Mix the Batter: Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, stirring until smooth. Fold in the dry ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
6. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
7. Cool and Slice: Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 2 hours before lifting them out using the parchment overhang. Slice and enjoy!

Recipe Tips:

• Don’t Overmix: When folding in the dry ingredients, stop once they’re just combined. Overmixing can lead to tougher brownies.
• Cool Completely: For the best fudgy texture, let the brownies cool fully before slicing. This will make them easier to cut and give a gooey center.
• Microwave in Intervals: Melting the chocolate in short bursts prevents burning and ensures a smooth, even melt.

How To Store:

At Room Temperature: Place brownies in an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to 3 days.

In the Fridge: Keep brownies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. This can make them firmer but still fudgy.

Freezing: Wrap individual brownies in plastic wrap and store them in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge or at room temperature before enjoying.
