Each ingredient comes measured AND weighed to make your baking easy! Worlds Best Fudgiest Brownies really live up to their name.

Brownies

Warning: not for the faint-hearted. Since posting our decadent Best Fudgy Cocoa Brownies a couple of years ago, some of you have been commenting that those are the best brownies you’ve ever tasted while also asking me about doubling that recipe to bake them in a larger pan. Well, the good news is YES you can… all prepared in under 10 minutes with only one bowl, using ingredients I know you already have in your kitchen. No melting chocolate needed and no mixers or beaters, just like the original.

Homemade Brownies

Pure. Chocolate. Heaven. This brownie recipe guarantees that you will never go back to a boxed brownie mix, let alone try yet another brownie recipe. The bad news? Eating the entire tray of fudge brownies in one sitting.

Simple, easy to make decadent brownies pack a serious chocolate punch!

These are not only super fudgy, easy to make brownies that are ready to eat about 15 minutes after pulling them out of the oven (being careful NOT to burn yourself), each brownie comes full of melted chocolate lava chunks throughout. They are absolutely incredibly fudgy the next day AND the day after that, and even stay fudgy after freezing them OR eating them cold out of the refrigerator up to a week later.

How to make brownies

Many of my readers have been doubling our best fudgy cocoa brownies recipe to get thicker, fatter brownies, substituting half of the white sugar for light brown sugar (as suggested in the notes section) and getting amazing results. After passing these around to my neighbours and friends, hearing the moans coming out of each and every one of them while slowly sinking their teeth into these brownies, I knew in my heart this recipe is a winner. The batter itself is to DIE for! Good luck NOT licking the spoon and bowl clean.

Add-In Ingredients

I threw in over 1 cup of chocolate chunks IN AND ON these (I used 45% cocoa chocolate), but you can also add:

crushed nuts (peanuts, walnuts, pecans, almonds, etc) dried fruits (dates, blueberries, cranberries, raisins) shredded coconut caramel pieces diced marshmallows peanut butter chips

Start with ½ cup each add in, or 1 cup if using only one option.

Baking Pans

Here’s where things got interesting during testing. We used three different baking pans, and they all came out perfect. It all depends on your preference of thickness: Please note: some readers find using darker or black pans comment that baking goods bake a lot darker and drier underneath, while readers commenting using lighter pans yield better more even and better results.

DO YOU SEE THAT CRACKLY TOP?

The smell coming out of your ovens will be pure sweet heaven. Your house will smell incredible for hours after baking. If only the internet would design smell-er-net. Wait about 15 minutes to slice these up, or up to an hour. The longer you wait, the ‘more set’ they will be and the slab will kinda sink into itself before slicing.
