  • 1 1/2 cups (300 grams) granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3. Step-by-Step Instructions for Making Fudgy Brownies

Prepare Your Baking Pantry

Gather all the ingredients listed and preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with butter for easy removal.

Mix the Wet Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and sugar. Whisk until well blended. Add the eggs one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract for added flavor.

Combine the Dry Ingredients

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the brownies tender.

Add Chocolate Chips

Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips to give the brownies that intense fudgy texture and extra bursts of chocolate flavor.

Bake the Brownies

Pour the batter into your prepared baking pan. Spread evenly with a spatula. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. Do not overbake to maintain that fudgy goodness.

Cooling and Serving

Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Slice into squares and serve warm or at room temperature for the perfect treat.

4. Storage Tips for Fudgy Brownies

Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer freshness, refrigerate for up to a week or freeze individual portions wrapped in plastic wrap. Reheat slightly before serving if desired.

5. Serving Suggestions & Pairings

Fudgy brownies are perfect on their own, but you can elevate the experience by serving them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. For an indulgent twist, drizzle with caramel or melted chocolate. Pair with a hot cup of coffee or cold milk to balance the richness.

6. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can I make these brownies dairy-free?

Yes! Substitute butter with coconut oil or a dairy-free margarine, and use dairy-free chocolate chips to keep this recipe vegan and dairy-free.

What if I don’t have cocoa powder?

You can try making these brownies with melted chocolate instead of cocoa powder, but the texture and density may vary slightly. Use about 1 cup of melted unsweetened chocolate in place of the cocoa powder for similar results.

How long do these brownies take to prepare?

The entire process, from mixing to baking, takes approximately 40 minutes, making it a quick and easy dessert.

Can I add nuts?

Absolutely! Fold in chopped walnuts, pecans, or almonds for added crunch and flavor.
