Best Classic Gooey Brownies Recipes

THE BEST FUDGY BROWNIES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line an 8-inch (20 cm) square baking dish with parchment paper.
• Chop the chocolate into chunks. Melt half of the chocolate in the microwave in 20-second intervals, saving the other half for later.
• In a large bowl, mix the butter and sugar with an electric hand mixer, then beat in the eggs and vanilla for 1-2 minutes, until the mixture becomes fluffy and light in color.
• Whisk in the melted chocolate (make sure it's not too hot or else the eggs will cook), then sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Fold to incorporate the dry ingredients, being careful not to overmix as this will cause the brownies to be more cake-like in texture.
• Fold in the chocolate chunks, then transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, depending on how fudgy you like your brownies, then cool completely.
• Slice, then serve with a nice cold glass of milk!
• Enjoy!

CLASSIC BROWNIES

Steps:

• Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 325 F. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with foil; butter the foil and set aside. Set a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (making sure the bowl doesn't touch the water). Put the 5 tablespoons of butter in the bowl, add the chocolate pieces, and stir occasionally until the ingredients are just melted-you don't want them to get so hot that the butter separates. Remove the bowl from the pan of water; stir well to combine and ensure that all the chocolate is melted.
• With a spatula, stir the sugar into the chocolate mixture and combine. (Don't be concerned when your smooth mixture turns grainy.) One by one, add the eggs and stir well to combine. Add the vanilla and give the ingredients a vigorous mix before gently stirring in the espresso, if you're using it, then the salt and flour. Stir only until incorporated. Fold in the chopped walnuts.
• Scrape the batter into the pan and smooth the top with the spatula. Bake for 30-33 minutes, or until the top is matte and a thin knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Transfer the pan to a cooling rack and cool the brownies to room temperature.
• When the brownies are completely cool, remove them from the pan using the foil. Peel away the foil and invert brownies onto a cutting board. Cut into 16 squares, each a scant 2 inches on a side.

GOOEY BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 2.2-quart glass baking pan with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Combine sugar, butter, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy.
• Sift 3/4 cup flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda together in a second bowl.
• Beat eggs, one at a time, into the sugar and butter mixture, until thoroughly combined. Add the flour mixture in 2 to 3 batches, mixing slowly until batter is just combined.
• Toss chocolate chips and walnuts with 1 1/2 tablespoons flour. Fold into the batter. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and use a rubber spatula to level off the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges are set and start to pull away from the sides of the pan, 20 to 30 minutes. Let cool until center firms up.

CLASSIC BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on at least 2 sides. Butter the foil.
• Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder and salt in a medium bowl. Melt the butter and chocolate in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring frequently. Let cool slightly. Stir in the sugar and eggs. Add the flour mixture, and stir to combine. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, and bake until a toothpick comes out with just a few crumbs, 30 to 35 minutes.
• Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a cooling rack. Use the foil overhang to help lift them out of the pan. Cut into 16 squares. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
