Ooey, gooey, fudgy brownies that will become a family favourite. I rarely make any other brownie recipe because we love this one so much!
I’m a sucker for ooey, gooey, fudgy brownies. Chocolate brownies are my weakness. This recipe gives you a fudgy brownie with crackly tops every single time. It’s brownie perfection!
They really are the best brownies in the world. Yes I know, I know, this is quite a claim. But seriously they are and that is, in fact, their name. So who am I to argue.
A friend sent me this link about a year ago I think. She had found a recipe for the best brownies in the world. Well, that got my attention, for sure.
Of course when someone makes a claim like that you just have to investigate further. If for no other reason than to prove them wrong. I mean who dares to say they make the best brownies in the whole world. So I did in fact investigate. And they are in fact the best brownies in the world.
If you like fudgy brownies these are for YOU! If you like cake-like brownies, then your hunt continues. Run off now you cake brownie loving folks. No need to read further. This is for fellow chewy, ooey, gooey, messy brownies lovers.
If you are in fact a chewy, ooey, gooey, messy brownies lover…well, you’ve come to the right place. Pull up a chair and hold on tight to it cuz I’m about to blow the roof off the joint. Y’all ready for this?
Oh small disclaimer, these are not my brownies. Well, I did, in fact, make them. But the recipe is not mine. I am not a genius. That distinguished honour goes to Alta from Tasty Eats At Home.
If you have not been to Alta’s blog you should go, run there now. Or look at the brownies first then run there. I have tried to adapt these to no avail. I attempted to make them better but I honestly don’t think it’s possible.
So at some point during your reading of this post go visit Alta’s blog, you need to stop by and check out her brownie recipe. Say hello, look around, enjoy her blog. She knows her stuff.

- Wooden Spoon– I have so many different brands of wooden spoons. I love using them for baking and making fudge. You can never have enough wooden spoons.
- Parchment Paper– I use Kirkland parchment paper because I can buy it from Amazon or Costco. I buy a two pack because I use a lot of it.
- Unsweetened Chocolate– I keep a few boxes of this on hand in my pantry at all times. Use whichever brand you prefer.

-
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
-
Line your pan with parchment paper. I find wetting it gets it more pliable.
-
Melt the butter and unsweetened chocolate together over low heat in a medium saucepan. Stir with a wooden spoon.
-
Remove from heat and add the sugar. Stir well.
-
Now add your eggs and vanilla, stirring until it’s smooth.
-
Add chocolate chips, flour and salt. Stir until well blended.
-
Pour into pan and place in oven. I always tap my pan to get out any bubbles and make it even.
-
Bake for 35-45 minutes, toothpick inserted should come out clean when done.
-
Remove and cool on a rack.
-
Serve with a smile.

@ the other Sandra(lol)- Thank you so much.

Palma says
Love this recipe. Make it all of the time. Thanks for the awesome recipe! I ran out of unsweetend chocolate and had to use underwear chocolate powder. I hope they turn out good.
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Palma. I’m guessing that was a typo because I wouldn’t recommend using underwear in the recipe! Ha! I’m guessing you used unsweetened chocolate powder. Don’t you just love autocorrect?! You should see some of things I send to friends and family.
I’m so glad you loved the recipe. It’s our go-to recipe as well. It’s just so dang good.

What a coincidence! I have quite a few "world's best…" recipes on my blog, as well. I will definitely try making these brownies and might spread the word. They already look like they deserve the title. so moist, dark and rich…
kitchenarian says
Congratulations on Top 9! I will definitely be trying these – I want to taste the best brownies in the world!
Season with Reason says
Best in the world huh? That's quite a claim – this brownie lover is going to have to put your recipe to the test 🙂 Photos look delicious.
Susan says
This is almost the exact same recipe that was in my Better Homes and Gardens Junior Cookbook when I was little–I don't know how many times I made these! I need to make them again.
tastyeatsathome says
So glad you love this recipe. I've tried to tweak it many a times, and honestly, this version right here IS the best. 🙂 Now I'm hungry for a brownie for breakfast. Darn it!
Lin Ann says
No. 1 in the Top 9, congrats!!! And they do look marvelous!

Hey you're from Essex! I'm originally from Windsor but living in Toronto now. Pleasure to meet you and your brownies….
Kim Bee says
@Asian-spice mix- Thanks so much!
@Curry and Comfort- Me too and thanks.
@Peggy- Thank you!
@Lizzy- Thank you so much for your sweet words.xx
@Julia- Lol, seems to lots of world's bests out there. I love it. Makes me giggle. You must test them out. I tried them a year ago and have never looked back.
@kitchenarian- I hope you test them out. We love them. I think this might be the first time they made it long enough to cool and cut. I had to threaten the whole family to protect them for the picture. lol
@Season with Reason- Lol, you have to try these out. They will not disappoint.
@Susan- I believe the original they were adapted from is Katherine Hepburn's recipe. So they are quite popular, were featured in a magazine I believe quite some time ago.
@TASTY EATS AT HOME- I AM SO HAPPY YOU CAME BY TO CHECK OUT ME DOING YOUR RECIPE. I HONESTLY HAVE TRIED TO TWEAK IT AND IT CANNOT BE MADE BETTER. BOWS IN HONOUR! EVEN DOES A FANCY CURTSY! Have you converted them to gluten free at all? I have lots of friends who are gluten free I can send you way! Much love and gratitude for being the inspiration behind the top 9 success. xx
@Lin Ann- Thanks, I've dropped to 3, should I worry? lol
@Cheryl and Adam- So good. Thanks so much.
@cyndeehule- I hope you test them and report back. I love them. They never last more than half a day here.
@Alyce- Best chocolate treat in the world.
@Becka- Thank you!
@Hester- Thanks my dear. Let me know what you think when you try them.
@Christina- Yeppers, small town Ontario. Where everyone knows your name and your story. Lol! I am in Windsor at least 2 or 3 times a week it seems. I read your blog and am mesmerized by your work. I will be visiting often. Nice to meet you too, you food scientist you! I want your job, it's the coolest thing in the world.
Pecan Pie says
The pictures look amazing. Thanks for the link to the vanilla salt recipe. I was going to ask if it was something that could be picked up at any supermarket. The brownies seems like the perfect recipe for my 6 year old nephew and I to undertake this weekend. ~ thanks, tom
Kim Bee says
@Pecan Pie- you could use plain old salt. I just made that vanilla salt so I like to use it whenever I can. Let me know know how they turn out.
Heather @ Side of Sneakers says
When I first saw the picture over on Foodbuzz I really thought they were brownies with cheese…I was intrigued! They sound delicious though 🙂
The Culinary Lens says
Fantastic brownies and I love your presentaion.
Cassie @ Bake Your Day says
COngrats on your top 9 today, yay!! Your brownies look delicious. They are my husband's favorite so I love seeing new variations!
Dee at Deelicious Sweets says
You have that voice in your head too! I totally hear that when I read your ICE CREAM SUNDAY'S! Congrats on Top 9!!!!!!! Can I get a WOOT WOOT!
Kim Bee says
@Heather- Rofl, I should have used pink napkins. Too funny.
@The Culinary Lens- Thanks so much.
@Cassie- Thank you. My daughter's fave too, she goes gaga over them.
@Dee- Glad to know I am not the only one who hears it. Thanks. And woot woot. So happy.

@juliana- Thank you!
@TheChocolatePriestess-Pretty huge, yah, I have issues. Lol! Yup, paper napkin. Thanks!
@Julia- Thanks so much.
Ang says
As others have said, the presentation is exceptional! I love brownies and have my own favorite recipe, but this one has chocolate chips, which of course, can make all the difference! Yum!
Kim Bee says
@Ang- Thanks. Brownies are just so good. It's my go to comfort dessert.
ConCon says
At first glance, I thought it was CHEESE inbetween the brownies. Hahahaha After closer investigation, I realize it's yellow paper. Boy do I feel like a dumby.
Food Wanderer says
Hi, Kim! just stopping by your wonderful blog 🙂 These look amazing! rich-check, fudgy-check, gooey-check, chewy-check,extra chocolate chips-check! What more can you ask for? These are the perfect brownies & look absolutely deelish!(^-^)
Sue Goldian says
They look terrific. Only problem is that here (Israel) there is NO unsweetened baking chocolate. Not that I'm complaining, mind you. When I first got here 43 years ago there weren't any chocolate chips and we had to chop our chocolate with a knife. Soooo, I'm used to adapting American or Canadian recipes that call for unsweetened chocolate by using semisweet and reducing the amount of sugar (which I usually do anyway for most recipes). So how much sugar would you suggest I use, assuming I'm using really good quality semisweet chocolate?
Kim Bee says
@ConCon- Lol, you are not the first to have made that mistake. I should have used another colour.
@Food Wanderer- Thanks so much. These are just so good I can barely stand it.
@Sue Goldian- Ah you pose an interesting question here. I personally tried to adapt these once and it went horribly awry. So I am terrified of messing with the amounts. If it was me switching out I would try one of two things:
1- don't adjust the sugar as the recipe is only two ounces of unsweetened so it should not make a huge difference taste wise. As brownies are better sweet anyway in my opinion.
2- again I like sweet so bear that in mind. I would try adjusting down by 1/4 cup. If it was four or six ounces of chocolate I'd guess it at 1/2 cup. But for just two ounces I would think cutting down by 1/4 is good.
Please let me know how they turn out. I swear I have tried a zillion brownie recipes and to date this is my fave. It's just so fudgey and gooey. I think we've only let one batch cool to date. And only as it was being used for something I had to cut it into squares for. I hope this helped. I am by far not a science oriented baker so hope I am not leading you down the garden path here. xx
Lorrie says
Brownies are my absolute favourite thing to eat, however, I have yet to find a homemade recipe I like better than a particular “boxed” mix, and I HATE boxed anything! I am so desperate for a homemade recipe I try every one I come across that promises to be “the own”. So of course, I had to try these this morning. They are not what I was looking for. 🙁 Mine turned out very hard to take out of the pan as there was really no texture to them. perhaps more flour is needed? and they were not the rich dark chocolate colour even though I used the dark chocolate as well as semi dark for the chips. I can see why the parchment paper is required – at least for the ones I made. Thanks for the recipe but I’m still on the hunt. 🙁
Kim Beaulieu says
I just saw this Lorrie. Your comment got stuck in the wrong spot.
My thought is yours were off because you used dark chocolate, the texture is different and it cooks differently. So that might be the issue.
I use parchment for all my baking because you can lift the bar/brownies/whatnot out of the pan without worrying about anything sticking. I actually use it for cooking too, makes cleanup a snap. But it should have no affect on the cooking. It’s just there to make stuff lift out really well, works great for sweet breads too.
These should be the colour in the photo, I don’t own photoshop so what you see is what I make. They should be a mid-level brown colour, a bit darker than milk, but not dark like dark or bitter chocolate.
I am so bummed you didn’t like them. Most people love these brownies. I’ve made them myself at least 50 times and loved them every single time. I rarely make any other brownie now. I like ooey, gooey, fudgy brownies so these are our favourite. Maybe you would prefer a more cake like brownie if you’re looking for more texture? It’s such a subjective thing. Some folks like cake type, some like fudgy, some like icing, some don’t. You can easily adapt this to make it more what you like. Happy to help if you like. xx
Kayle (The Cooking Actress) says
WHOA. good call on the updated pics….my mouth is wateringggg
christina says
Has anyone tried making these with coconut oil instead of butter?
Kim Beaulieu says
I have. It’s pretty good. I like the half and half approach, 1/2 butter and 1/2 coconut oil. That way you get the best of both worlds. I found them a bit more chewy with full coconut oil, but that’s not such a bad thing with brownies.
Brianne @ Cupcakes & Kale Chips says
Mmm, they look perfect, and with only 1/4 c flour, I bet I could easily convert it to make them gluten free and still fabulous!
Karen says
Mae these tonight and everyone loved the brownies. We couldn’t wait for them to cool down! Daughter said they are the best brownies ever! Thanks for posting our new brownie recipe.
Kim Beaulieu says
Yeah! I’m so happy to hear that. We have loved these for years. I swear my kids won’t let me make any other recipe. It’s our go to recipe for brownies. We make two batches at once, that way we can eat one pan hot and one cooled. Not good for the waistline at all. xx
carissa says
These are sinfully delicious.
Coco says
I have to get my Cravings fix on the w/end since I can’t connect to your site from work…not a bad thing b/c I’d be drooling onto my keyboard!
I got sidetracked and found this recipe today.
LOVE the first pic -very clever, Kimmy.
And vanilla salt is new to me. Can’t wait to see what that’s about,
The crinkly sheet that forms on top of brownies is like magic. It’s my fav part!
Doreen Pendgracs says
I absolutely adore brownies. I will try making these, and let you know how they compare with the best brownies I’ve ever had: the dark Choc sea salt caramel pecan brownies from Paul A. Young of London.
Stacy says
These look fantastic! Do you know if the recipe can be doubled and baked in a 9 x 13 dish?
Kim Beaulieu says
I usually bake double batches in two 8 inch dishes because we like the edges. I would think it would work beautifully, most brownie recipes do well in a 9 x 13. The middle might be gooey but that’s sort of what these brownies are all about. They are super fudgy.
Now I want to try it. Ha. Brownies may be on the menu for Easter.
Heather says
Just made these and took them camping. DELISH. Hard to find a good brownie recipe that is not too cakey and has the chewy crinkled top texture of a box brownie but oh so much better (and without all the unknown ingredients). These were perfect. My hubby the ultimate critic loved and my 4 and 6 yr old boys had them plain the first night in S’mores the second.
Lori says
When you say 2 oz of unsweetened chocolate, does that mean the little squares of chocolate or 2 oz of the powdered cocoa? Thanks!
Kim Beaulieu says
The squares of chocolate. Hope that helps. Hope you love them. They are our favourite.
Loti says
That’s what I thought, but just wanted to verify! My boys loved them!! Thanks for the great recipe!
Kim Beaulieu says
Yeah, so happy to hear that. We love them. My family doesn’t even want me trying other brownie recipes. They love this one too much.
Kelly says
I just made these.. and in all seriousness, these most certainly are the BEST brownies in the world!
Kim Beaulieu says
Yeah, I am so thrilled to hear that Kelly. I just love this recipe. I rarely make any other brownie because none compare. So thrilled you liked them. Thanks for taking the time to swing by to let me know. I appreciate it. xx
Anonymous says
Hi,
The brownies look divine! will definitely try.
Just a quick question, how do you get the cracked crispy surface look. I can never get that right.
Kim Beaulieu says
This recipe seems to get that top every time I make it. Not sure if it’s luck or this recipe. When I mix I try not to over-mix the flour addition. But if you read up it’s suppose to have to do with the eggs. Beat the batter a little longer than you think is necessary after adding the eggs, it forms a meringue on top of the brownies. Here’s a great, quick read on the subject if you want to learn more. But definitely try this recipe. For me it does it every time. I’m also a big believer in not quite mixing the flour too much.
Read The Kitchn article here, that’s a great site if you like knowing the science behind things- http://www.thekitchn.com/how-do-i-make-brownies-with-shiny-tops-180270
Jennifer Stewart says
Great recipe! I love brownies and am always looking for a great recipe! Especially one that I can add things to and make it crazy! Thanks for sharing!
Kim Beaulieu says
It could be any number of things affecting them. The quality of the cocoa, whether any ingredients were stale, whether your oven temperature is bang on, there’s so many things that can affect the outcome of a recipe. I’ve made these about 50 or 60 times over the years and I’ve only had them fail once. I used poor quality chocolate so it just separated oddly. It happens. The colour should not be an issue, it should not affect taste. They do bubble in the oven, that’s pretty normal when things bake. Let me know how they look when they come out of the oven. I’m happy to help trouble shoot any recipe, any time.
Also A. Lunatic says
Yep, I can officially vouch for it. These brownies are the best. May your search end in bliss.
Kim Beaulieu says
Ha, thanks so much. I love these things. Making some tomorrow.
emma l. says
Thank you for sharing! This is exactly what I have been looking for! I can’t wait to try them.
Rachel says
Just made these this weekend for the superbowl! Huge hit!!!! My boyfriend and I ate half of the pan and had to make a second batch! Thanks for sharing!
Amanda Olivero says
Huh! Can’t figure out for the life of me where I messed up here… I did this recipe and my brownies came out VERY light. Not at all fudgy and dark like yours. Haven’t tried them yet but coming out of the oven they are a pale brown. Retracing my steps and can’t find anything I did that differed from the recipe!
Kim Beaulieu says
Hey Amanda, it can be as simple as the quality of chocolate you use. I use really high quality (sorta pricey) ingredients. I buy really good baking supplies and butter, so it can play into the final results. Not all chocolate is created equal, in fact they can vary greatly. Also wait till they cool to judge the colour. Everything looks weird in the oven because the oven lighting is so yucky. I can’t remember if the photos of this were taken on a bright or gloomy day, but all my photos are taken with natural light using bounce boards for extra light. I don’t have photoshop so I try to make sure the photos are taken in the most true light possible since I’m super limited when it comes to editing. I wouldn’t worry too much what they look like as long as the taste is what you’re looking for.
Have you heard of Alton’s Brown’s technique of cooking brownies for 20 minutes, then removing them for 20 minutes, then slipping them back into the oven to finish? I am SO trying it this weekend.
Hope they turn out. I make these at least once or twice a month and never have issues with them. We like them so much that my daughter won’t let me make any other brownie recipes. It’s why you see so few of them on my blog. It’s driving me a bit nuts because I love to experiment. ha
elise h. says
Just made this today! Made a quadruple batch. My intention had been to follow the recipe exactly, however, I accidentally doubled the flour (ugh). Happy to report – they were still super yummy/gooey. 3/4 got made into brownie muffins (with a caramel square in the middle) – freeze these to give out with freezer meals for friends who have babies/dealing with illness (made 36 cups) – and 1/4 got made into an 8×8 pan of Peppermint brownies (added 4 drops of Young Living Peppermint Essential Oil). This will be my go-to recipe from here on out! Better than Money Saving Mom’s “Ultimate Brownie” recipe – after 2 trials of that, I was like – not quite what I’m looking for. This is it! Thanks for sharing!
Kim Beaulieu says
Elise you just made my day. I’ve had such a horrible one, but reading this totally turned it around.
I’ve totally been there. The one time I was suppose to make my mom’s apple crisp for the blog I messed up the ingredients. It was hilarious, I’ve made it a million times, I can makee it in my sleep, without her notes. But that one day it went so wrong.
I swear this brownie recipe is amazing. It’s based off Katherine Hepburn’s recipe which is known by so many people. It’s perfect for people who love fudgy brownies. I’ve messed this up before and it always seems to come out right. It’s almost fool proof.
I just made two batches this week. One has creme eggs in it, the other has m & m’s. Ha. I just can’t help myself. I may have to try the peppermint oil trick, that sounds amazing.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by. It’s very sweet of you and I’m so happy you liked them.
Rafiqah says
Hi Kim!
Your brownies look so fabulous i got to try them! But just a question, if i were to use a 9×9 inch pan, how long would i have to bake these delicious brownies?
Your reply is greatly appreciated 🙂
Kim Beaulieu says
Hey, I use a 9 inch on occasion. They will be super thin but still good. Try cutting the time down by about 10 minutes, then check them. They have a gooey consistency when hot. Then they firm up slightly after cooling. But still gooey. More of a fudgey brownie than a cake brownie. Hope that helps.
Karissa says
These were great! Quite a bit sweeter than I like my chocolate, though. Do you think they’d still come out right if I cut out some sugar?
Kim Beaulieu says
Hey Karissa. I’m so glad you liked them. I do happen to have a sweet tooth so a lot of my recipes are a bit on the sweet side. You can totally cut down the sugar in these. Most recipes you can safely cut sugar in half. It’s only the rare recipe that you can’t. You could also try using dark chocolate, that might cut the sweetness for you.

Thanks Lorelai. I’ll try to swing by for sure.
Jen says
They are so yummy!! I made them to give them as a gift to my boyfriend, I hope they taste as yummy tomorrow when I give them to him. Mine didn’t look as pretty as in your pics though, but I least the taste good! I don’t know if they are gonna survive till’ll tomorrow, they are too good haha
Mayo says
I cannot see the left hand column of this website, including the ingredients of what sounds like it might be an awesome recipe because the share system is eating up the content. Please put it on the right side or bottom of the page. Thanks!
Kim Beaulieu says
That is very odd. I’m seeing it fine from all my devices. I’ll ask my tech girl about it. I’m not sure why you can’t see it. The ingredients are actually in the middle. Very odd situation. Thank you for letting me know.
Angela says
Is it vanilla sugar or salt? Because the recipe say salt but the recpies for vanilla sugar
Kim Beaulieu says
Hey Angela, thanks for the heads up. The recipe plugin was pulling the wrong link, not sure why or how. The link in the post was right but the link in the recipe area was wrong. It’s vanilla salt. You don’t have to use it if you don’t have any. Regular salt is totally acceptable. I just happen to always keep vanilla salt on hand for added oomph to baked goods. But it’s more of a preference for me. Not necessary to the recipe. Use regular salt if you don’t have access to vanilla salt or don’t want to make any. If you do make vanilla salt it makes lovely holiday gifts. I always give away tons of it during the holidays. I make huge batches of it.
Thanks for noticing that and letting me know. I really appreciate it.

It would be great if you moved the bar with the pins for pinterest, facebook, etc to the right hand side of the page so the recipes ingredients can be read. The recipe sounds great and I’d like to try it.. Thanks.
Kim Beaulieu says
You should still be able to see it. Are you on a desktop or mobile? I’ll mention the issue to my tech girl. I’m on now and can read it but I’m wondering if mobile is causing some issues. Thanks for the feedback.

Hi !
Looveee the pic !
1. How much beaten are the eggs?
2. When I mix the sugar into the chocolate, should I wait the choco to cool down? Should I wait until the sugar melt?
Help lol. Just made these and failed 😣
Kim Beaulieu says
Hey. Oh no, that sucks. I hate when recipes don’t work for some people. Were they too dry, too wet? if you let me know I can probably trouble shoot them. I’ve made these brownies about 100 times now and they’ve only failed once for me. I had the heat too high and added an ingredient at the wrong time. But usually they work even if something is slightly off. I usually just beat the eggs very lightly, and on occasion when I’m wildly lazy I’ve tossed them in without beating them. I know, I shouldn’t admit that but sometimes I’m hurrying or forget. It shouldn’t affect the outcome too drastically.
When you melt the chocolate and butter together you want the stovetop on so it’s warm but not hot, basically just warm enough to melt the butter and chocolate without scorching it. If you cook it too high it gets a weird taste to it, and will start to burn quickly. Once the butter and chocolate are just barely smooth I take it off the heat. I add the sugar right away because you want the heat from the chocolate and butter to dissolve the sugar, otherwise the brownies will be grainy (best word I can think of to describe that). Mix it really well for about 1 to 2 minutes, that way the sugar really gets time to do it’s thing. At that point the mixture is cool enough to add the eggs. If you add them when it’s too hot it will scramble your eggs which would be seriously gross. Ha. I know because I’ve had that happen with other recipes. Then just mix everything really well and toss it in the pan. Maybe your pan was too big, or too small? Or sometimes if any of the ingredients are old, or stale, it can throw off the recipe. Even moisture and altitude can affect the outcome.
When they’re done they are really gooey and soft. When they set they become easy to pick up and eat but still very soft and fudgy. We love ooey, gooey, fudgy brownies. So if you’re used to a cake like brownie the texture of these would seem weird.
Let me know what sort of went wrong, too wet, too dry, over-cooked, under-cooked or weird texture and I might be able to help. I love helping so hit me up any time. I’m always bummed when these fail for people. I hate seeing people waste money, and time. Plus I just like to know my recipes typically work out well. So I’m always happy to problem solve with people. Email me if you need instant help. Urgent I’d nudge me on FB. I’m usually online a lot but we got a new horse today so I was gone all day today.

Hi there! If I make these in a silicone cupcake pan, would I change anything about the recipe? I want to make heart-shaped ones for Valentine’s Day. Thanks!
Kim Beaulieu says
I’ve not tried them in silicone pans. But I’m sure it would work. Just start checking them sooner, because these are fudgy brownies so they’re super moist. Not sure how well they would hold their shape. You could add a little more flour to the recipe to make them a tiny bit less fudgy so they hold up better. If I were trying it I’d likely cream the butter and sugar instead of melting it. Then I’d add an extra 1/4 cup of flour to see if that helps hold the shape better.
Are you using individual cupcake liners or multi-well type of pan?
Anonymous says
Thank you, Kim! They’re silicone cupcake-type pans. I’m not using liners at all!
Lucy @ Globe Scoffers says
I love making brownies but the tops of mine don’t come out like this have you got any tips I could use?
Kim Beaulieu says
Hey Lucy. The theory on cracked tops is basically over-mixing after the eggs are added. Some people love it, some people hate it. There’s a section in the cookbook BakeWise that explains why it happens. Essentially it’s a thin layer of meringue that develops after you cream the butter and sugar, then add the eggs. So if you want to do it on purpose mix a little too vigorously after you mix in the eggs. I never plan to do it, I just find it happens with this particular recipe. Or I’m just a bad baker, ha. It’s basically poor technique if it’s not planned. If it’s planned and it works you’re a genius. Crazy, right? I know a lot of people say not to over-mix batter with brownies, and that leaving a little flour showing isn’t such a bad thing. For me I like a smooth batter so I mix mine a little more than I probably should. Hope that helps. Let me know how they turn out. And sorry this took so long, we’ve had a weird month so I haven’t been as prompt as usual with replying.
Lucy @ Globe Scoffers says
Wow this is genius! I am definitely going to try this next time I make brownies. Thanks for sharing.😃
Kim Beaulieu says
Thanks Lucy. I hope it works. Let me know how they turn out.
Liz says
Can you confirm that 8tbsp of butter is 1/2 cup? Made these last weekend but can’t tell if I slightly undercooked them or messed up on an ingredient – thanks!!!!
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Liz, sorry to just see this now, I’ve been offline most of the weekend.
Yes, 8 tablespoons is 1/2 cup. Here’s a fabulous chart if you want to print it off and pop it in your cupboard: http://www.tablespoon.com/posts/tablespoon-conversions-tablespoons-in-cups/bdf92edc-7542-4af5-8d55-6bd11ef77101
I keep those things inside my baking cupboard to make it easier for me. I’m Canadian so I’m constantly converting things. I really should put a conversion tool on the blog. It’s something I’ve been looking into to make things easier for everyone using the blog.
This particular brownie recipe is very soft and fudgy. When you first take them out they almost seem underbaked. Once they cool they should be soft and still slightly fudgy. They don’t bake up like cake-like brownies. When you pick one up and it’s hot it will almost fall apart and the texture is slightly harder than creme brulee. Once it cools it should still be soft and you can pick it up but it might start to fall apart because it’s soft. Hopefully that makes sense and helps determine if you’re getting the results you should be. We like our brownies soft and fudgy. If you don’t add some extra flour the next time you make them. It might help. These are based on Katherine Hepburn’s brownies.
http://www.joyofbaking.com/katharinehepburnbrownies.html
Let me know if you need any ore help. I’m always happy to help. I’ve made these about 10o times, my daughter won’t let me make any other brownies. I know if I misstep with the stovetop portion they won’t turn out. One time I had the heat too high because I was in a rush and they were crumbly. Another time I didn’t measure the butter correctly and they were too soft. It happens to all of us.
You can hit me up here or by email, I’m always happy to answer questions or trouble-shoot recipes with anyone. It helps me as much as the readers. Anything I can learn about writing the recipes more efficiently for readers is a good thing.
Kris ~Big Rigs 'n Lil' Cookies says
I am baking these tomorrow! I am always on the look out for a brownie that will impress me, and it sounds like this is the one! Excited to try them 🙂
Erin @ Texanerin Baking says
“Run off now you cake brownie loving folks.” Hahaha. Favorite sentence in a recipe blog post ever. 😀 The brownies look great but I just loved that one bit so much!
Kim Beaulieu says
Ha, I used to have such a way with words, didn’t I? Ha! Thanks Erin.
M says
Hi, we don’t have unsweetened chocolate in my country.. what can i do?
M says
also, is it okay to use a 23 cm square pan for this or will it change something?
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Marilyn. The 23 cm pan is the equivalent of an 9 inch pan. It might make the brownies too thin, but if you like crispy edges on your brownies it could be a blessing in disguise. Usually I’d recommend an 8 inch (20 cm) but if all you have is the 23 cm then I vote go for it and just know they’ll be won’t be as thick as the photos, and start checking them about 5 minutes sooner than the recipe calls for. Let me know if you need any more help. I’m always happy to help out.
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Marilyn. No worries. I’ve used semi-sweet in it’s place. You can even swap it out for all milk chocolate or dark. It won’t affect this recipe much. Some recipes the types of chocolate used would cause issues, but this one is pretty adaptable so you can substitute the chocolate without any trouble. Hope that helps.
M says
Hi Kim! I made these today in a 9 inch own and they were seriously the best I’ve ever had, although a little dry on the edges since I kept the time as it would be for an 8 inch pan. Will buy a 8 inch next week to get them completely perfect. Thanks for such a great recipe, so happy to have found the best fudgy brownie recipe ever!
Just a quick last question.. Can I freeze these? And for how long will they last? And can I put a few in the refrigerator after they have cooled?
xoxo,
Marilyn
Kim Beaulieu says
I am so glad you loved them. These are my daughter’s favourite brownies. I think I’ve made them over 100 times. At least.
I’ve frozen them, just be sure to make sure you seal them up really well. I’ve kept mine in the freezer for maybe 3 to 4 weeks. Any longer and I’d worry about freezer burn, or the texture changing when you take them out.
And yes, I keep mine in the fridge all the time. I find they keep longer that way. I usually freeze half, and refrigerate half.
Seriously, so happy you loved them. Thanks for letting me know.
Erika says
Hi Kim,
what kind of butter did you use? just wondering if its unsalted or just normal butter.
thanks 🙂
Kim Beaulieu says
I tend to use salted for almost all my baking just because I prefer the taste. Most bakers recommend using unsalted though. This recipe is super forgiving so you can use either. Hope you love them.
Mekhala says
These brownies look gorgeous!! I am drooling already! Will certainly make them.
Just one question I have- there are a few friends of mine who don’t take eggs. Can you suggest any alternative ingredient for them?
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Mekhala. I’ve not tried doing it myself in this particular recipe but typically you can substitute 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce for 1 egg. You could also try using 1/4 cup mashed banana. I’m not sure how an egg substitute would work. I don’t bake with those so it’s foreign territory for me. I can’t guarantee how well it would work but I’d likely try the applesauce first. I’ve done that with other recipes. Hope that helps.
Mekhala says
Thank you so much 😀 will try today and let you know..
Thanks again for the prompt reply 🙂
Sara Campbell says
These are delicious. I just made some and they are very moist and oh so good! They will definitely stay on my list of favorite dessert recipes.
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Sara. I’m so glad you liked them. We just made a batch on the weekend. The kids were here so I had to make them.
Lisa says
Would it each possible to make these in a larger pan?
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Lisa. I would double batch them if you make them in a bigger pan.
Lorraine says
Followed recipe exactly volutes brownies came out very flat. Very disappointed.
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Lorraine. So sorry to hear that. I know I’m always bummed when I make something and it doesn’t work out so I completely empathize. Since these are fudgy brownies they aren’t very tall but they shouldn’t be flat. Feel free to email me if you want any help figuring out what went wrong. Sometimes elevation differences or brands used can affect the outcome. So many variables can come into play. Happy to help in any way I can.
JVB says
I read through only a dozen or so comments, no one apparently made the brownies … or they would have said there’s a recipe error. It only calls for 1/4 cup of flour … There’s no way you can get 8 brownies from 1/4 cup flour!
Kim Beaulieu says
It’s not an error at all. It makes a full pan of brownies. Less flour means fudgy brownies. If you prefer cake-like brownies feel free to use more.
lloyd hayden says
just curious could you use walnuts in these brownies
Kim Beaulieu says
Yes, absolutely. I also recommend pistachios. So good.
lloyd hayden says
can you add walnuts to the brownies
Kim Beaulieu says
Absolutely!!!
Lani says
These are the BEST!!!!! Can this recipe be doubled? Thank you!!!
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Lani. I’ve made them in a bigger pan and doubled the recipe before. They turned out well. My only issue with that is I like the pieces on the edge of the pan. Ha. So I usually do two 8 inch pans instead of doubling this.
cubby says
These really ARE the BEST.. I was short an egg and made half the recipe and parchment lined a cast iron skillet. I used white chocolate chips in place of the semi sweet and unsweetened cocoa for the unsweetened chocolate ( for each oz use 3 T cocoa and 1 T butter.. These were amazing
Kim Beaulieu says
I’m so glad you liked them. I’ve had to substitute ingredients before too. I swear this recipe is fool-proof.
Anonymous says
I rarely keep recipes because I like to experiment without a measuring cup but this is a keeper
Kim Beaulieu says
Thanks so much. We love this recipe so much. I rarely make any other brownie recipe because we love this one SO much.
I’m like you, I love experimenting and flying by the seat of my pants.
elisa says
I substuted baking cocoa powdercfor the unsweetened chocolate squares. 6 tablespoons cocoa powder + 2 tablespoons oil. These came out perfect!
Kim Beaulieu says
I’ve had to substitute ingredients too. It’s one of those recipes that is so easy to adapt. I’m so glad yours turned out well. Did you use coconut oil?
Shaireen says
These brownies look amazing! Will definitely try them. Just wanted to know how many ounces would 8 tbsps of butter make..
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Shaireen. 8 tablespoons equals 1/2 cup.
1/2 cup = 113 grams = 1 U.S. stick = 4 ounces
Hope that helps!
jan says
Have you ever doubled this and used a 9X13 pan? Howd it work out?
Kim Beaulieu says
I usually just make two 8 inch pans when I want extra. That way you get more edges which so many people like.
Nancy says
What size pan are you dispose to use?
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Nancy. It’s an 8 inch square baking pan. Happy baking!
Kim says
You’re NOT kidding when you said Best Brownies!!! This is the only recipe I use and my family demands these all the time. Thank you!
Kim Beaulieu says
Thanks so much Kim. I’m glad you love them. I’m a sucker for ooey, gooey, fudgy brownies so I make these WAY too much.
Barbara Skinner says
I’ve switched to the Ghiradelli 70% chocolate chips – try them once and you’ll never go back I promise!
Kim Beaulieu says
I like Ghiradelli too but my kids are partial to milk chocolate. Ghiradelli makes amazing chocolate. It melts beautifully.
Elizabeth says
These are literally the best brownies I have ever put in my mouth! The second batch is in the oven as we speak. And it’s an RV oven which is a feat in and of itself to get something to cook evenly in it!! Thank you so much for this recipe!!!
Kim Beaulieu says
Thanks so much Elizabeth. I love that you made them in your RV. That’s amazing!
These are my daughter’s favourite brownies. She loves them!
Mary Rose says
We are a gluten-free family. That being said these are the ONLY brownies I have found that everyone in our strangely wonderful family loves and will eat that I can adapt to our gluten-free life-style. They have the three most important components of any recipe…(1) Easy (2) easily adaptable to our GF living and (3) stunningly delicious. You will not be disappointed making these brownies…gluten-free or regular. They are moist, chocolate-ly and they keep beautifully. Go bake some brownies 🙂
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Mary Rose. I am so happy to hear they can be adapted so easily for gluten free diets. I’ll have to try it myself.
My daughter loves these so much I rarely make any other brownies. Which isn’t good given I’m a food blogger. Ha!
Allyce says
If I wanted to double the recipe to make 9x 13 pan, would that work? Has anyone tried it? Does it change the baking time?
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Allyce. I make them often in a 9 x 13 inch pan. You will cook them slightly longer. If you like I can make them again next week in a 9 x 13 inch pan and time it for you. I’d do it this week but I’m leaving for vacation in a couple of days.
Suzy Q says
I have made these brownies probably a dozen times now and they always come out perfectly! Presents, birthdays, sick friend-visits: these versatile smile-makers are infallible. Truly the best brownies in the world!
Kim Beaulieu says
Thanks so much for the comment. I always love hearing that people love these brownies. My daughter loves them and basically won’t let me make any other brownies. Ha!
Haley says
I make these brownies every chance I get and they’re always a HUGE hit! Family and friends love how soft and chocolate-y they are. This will be the only brownie recipe I ever use!
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Haley. I am so happy to hear that. My daughter feels the same way and only wants me to make these brownies. They’re so darn good.
If you want to change them up a bit you can add mini peanut butter cups or even caramel to the batter. So good.
Sruti says
I love a good chewy brownie. The photos made me make these brownies. Not once but twice in one week. It tastes really good but I am not getting the chewy texture at all (both times). It was more like a cake in the middle than a brownie.
Kim Beaulieu says
You might be overmixing the batter. It could also be oven variances. Maybe try baking it for a wee bit less time. They should be soft and not cake-like. Let me know if you need more help. I’m happy to help troubleshoot this with you.
Gigi says
This recipe is soo good! We’ve been making them every weekend for a month. We want to mix things up a little bit and add a cream cheese swirl. Any tips?
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Gigi. I have a cream cheese swirl brownie recipe coming up but not for a couple of weeks.
Basically, you want to make two separate batters. Make the brownie batter and pour that into the pan. Then make another batter using 8 oz cream cheese, about 1/3 to 1/4 cup of sugar (just granulated is fine), 1 egg white and a little bit of vanilla or almond extract. Drop that batter over the brownie batter randomly, then use a butter knife to make the swirl patterns. Bake as directed.
You can amp it by adding a bit of peanut butter to the cream cheese mixture. Or Biscoff. Or Nutella. The skies the limit.
Let me know if you need any more help. Be sure to let me know if you make swirl ones!!
Jazmine says
Thank you for warning the “cakey” lovers (that’s me) even bough I’m moving on I appreciate you saving me time!
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Jazmine. Happy to help. I know a lot of folks prefer cake-like brownies so I prefer to be up front with folks.
Yang says
Did you say ooey, gooey, and fudgy? Now I’m just drooling over those brownies! I haven’t had brownies for a year now. I have been baking quite a lot of bread recently, and I can’t believe I forgot about brownies! I believe yours are the best brownies that’s why I saved this recipe! I’m too excited to make them! Thank you so much for this recipe!
Kim Beaulieu says
Hope you get a chance to try them!
Nancy says
It says to add eggs and vanilla, I don’t see eggs in the ingredient list. How many eggs? Thank you they look wonderful. after reading that people made these I am wondering if you could just leave the eggs out?
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Nancy. It’s 2 eggs. Not sure why you’re not seeing it but it’s there. I just checked to make sure there wasn’t a glitch causing issues. I wouldn’t recommend leaving the eggs out for this recipe. Feel free to email me at [email protected] if you have any more questions or problems with the site. Or you can leave another comment and I’ll keep my eyes peeled for it. Thanks for visiting the blog. Hope you have a great week!
Joan says
They look delish, but I guess I can’t try the recipe as the measurements are in metrics. Don’t know if I can figure it out or not.. Also am wondering what size pan to use. I’m guessing an 8 x 8.
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Joan. You can click either US Customary or Metric in the recipe card and it will give what you need. It has both so everyone can enjoy the recipe.
Yes, the pan is 8 x 8 inch square.
Have a great day!
Jane says
With this “self isolation” going on because of the virus I decided it was time to start my pre-summer baking lol. Every spring (though not usually this early) I bake double batches when I make something – one to enjoy at the time and the other to wrap and freeze for home made treats in the middle of summer without having the oven on. I did double the recipe and baked it in a 9×13 pan so maybe that could be why they don’t have that lovely crackly top like in your pics. They taste amazing though! I followed the recipe exactly and the smell had me drooling before I even got them out of the oven lol. It might be hard to keep them in the freezer for too long though, they would be too tempting to just grab when the mood hits 😀
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Jane. I think a lot of people are baking and cooking right now. The blog is hopping with comments and questions since self isolation was announced.
I’m so glad you liked them. They really are my favourite brownies in the world. My whole family loves them so I rarely make any other kind.
Hope you are staying safe. Take good of yourself through this. It’s a scary time in the world right now.
Brandy says
Is cocoa powder the unsweetened chocolate?
Kim Beaulieu says
Hi Brandy. It’s unsweetened chocolate. Hope that helps.
