How to Make the Best Fudgy Brownie

For the perfect fudgy brownies, never use a raising agent like baking powder or soda; instead opt for the dense texture of no-leavening recipes.

I feel that beating the eggs for a longer period of time adds to the fudgy texture of the brownie as well.

Also make sure to measure your flour carefully, as using too much can end in a dry brownie!

In addition keep an eye on cooking time – 28 to 33 minutes is usually long enough. Make sure not to over bake by testing with a skewer or a toothpick (you’ll want some moist sticky bits attached!)

To make the best fudgy brownie recipe you’ll need butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla, salt, cocoa powder, flour and chocolate chips.

You’ll also need a mixer to cream the butter and sugar.

How to Make Fudgy Brownies

Step 1. Cream Butter and Sugar

First you’ll cream the butter and sugar together until it’s well incorporated.

Because of the sugar to butter ratio, the mixture will appear granulated.

Step 2. Add Eggs and Beat

Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the creamed butter and sugar and beat for 2 minutes.

Beating the mixture gives this fudgy brownie recipe just the right texture and a lovely sheen on the crust of the brownie.

Step 3. Add Dry Ingredients

I first like to add the salt and cocoa powder to the creamed egg mixture and beat well.

Then add the flour and mix at a low speed, just until it’s incorporated.

The brownie batter will be very thick.

Step 4. Fold in Chocolate Chips

To make this fudgy brownie recipe truly indulgent, I like to add 1/2 cup of both semi sweet, and milk chocolate chips.

Fold the chocolate chips into the batter.

Step 5. Bake Fudgy Brownies

At this time spread the brownie batter into a greased 9×13 baking pan.

And bake at 350° for 28-33 minutes.

You’ll want to test it with a skewer or toothpick after 28 minutes.

Certainly you don’t want to over-bake it and have a dry brownie.

Garnish

You can either bake the brownie in a heart shaped pan, or use a cookie cutter to cut your heart shape.
