Fudgy Chewy Brownies
Fudgy Chewy Brownies, or Brookies, combine the rich taste of brownies with a chewy cookie texture for a delicious treat.
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 95 g plain (all-purpose) flour
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 225 g dark chocolate (chopped)
- 56 g butter (salted or unsalted)
- 2 pieces eggs (room temperature)
- 100 g caster or granulated sugar
- 90 g Demerara or raw sugar *see notes
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Chocolate Chips
- 85 g dark or milk chocolate chips
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 160ºC (320ºF) with a fan or 170ºC (338ºF) for conventional heating. Prepare a baking tray by lining it with parchment paper.
- In a heatproof bowl, combine the chopped dark chocolate and butter. Place this bowl over a pan of simmering water and stir occasionally until melted. Stir in vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, use an electric whisk on high speed to whip the codes, sugars, and eggs until thick and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
- In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt, then add the chocolate chips.
Mixing
- Gradually fold the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the whipped eggs and sugars, stirring gently.
- Carefully fold in the dry ingredients until just combined to maintain the batter's lightness.
Baking
- Scoop tablespoons of batter onto the prepared baking tray, spacing them apart. Bake for 12-14 minutes until set and crackly on top.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with sea salt immediately if desired. Let cool on the tray for about 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Notes
To serve, enjoy warm or at room temperature, ideally with vanilla ice cream or coffee. Store cooled brookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
