200g dark chocolate
150g unsalted butter
200g caster sugar
3 large eggs
100g plain flour
1 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of salt

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a saucepan, melt the dark chocolate and butter together over low heat. Once melted, let it cool for a few minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together the caster sugar and eggs until the mixture becomes pale.
Add the vanilla extract and the cooled melted chocolate and butter mixture to the egg and sugar mix. Stir well until combined.
Gently fold in the plain flour and a pinch of salt using a spatula or wooden spoon. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the brownie batter into the lined baking tray and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. The brownies should be set but still gooey in the center.
Once baked, remove from the oven and let them cool in the tray. After cooling, cut into squares and serve!

Tips to Make Decadent Fudgy Brownies

FAQs

Q: Can I use milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate?
A: Yes, you can use milk chocolate if you prefer a sweeter brownie, but the taste will be less rich.

Q: Why did my brownies come out cake-like instead of fudgy?
A: This can happen if you overbake them. Make sure to keep an eye on them and take them out when they’re still slightly gooey in the center.

Q: Can I use a different type of flour?
A: It’s best to stick with plain flour for this recipe. Using whole wheat flour may change the texture of the brownies.
