One Bowl Fudgy Brownies
Delicious Fudgy Brownies made in one bowl for easy cleanup and delicious taste.
Ingredients
- ¾ cups unsalted butter (12 tablespoons)
- 3 tablespoons oil any, even olive oil works. You wont taste it.
- 3 large eggs room temperature
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1½ cups powdered sugar
- ½ cup all purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon espresso powder Optional
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate (chips or bar, chopped) (6oz) (170g) For melting *See Notes Below
- ¾ cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips (125g) For mix in
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉
- To start, set a pot of water to boil on the stove. We will use this as a double boiler to to melt the butter and chocolate in a large bowl. This method ensures we use one bowl only!
- Once the water is boiling, add a heat proof bowl on top of the pot. Make sure the bottom of the bowl isnt touching the water.
- Add the butter and the 6 ounces chocolate chips or chunks. Use a spatula to keep mixing around until fully melted and smooth.
- Add the cocoa powder, oil, vanilla extract, espresso powder, and and mix until completely smooth. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
- Once slightly cooled, add in the eggs, brown sugar, and powdered sugar. Whisk well until no longer lumpy.
- Add in the flour, salt and mix with a spatula.
- Toss in the remaining 3/4 cup chocolate chips or chunks, mix, and transfer to a lined 8×8 square inch pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for an hour before slicing.
Notes
- 6 ounces is a little less than 1 cup but more than 3/4 cup of chocolate chips. If you have a kitchen scale, its best to use it here.
- For the best and easiest slicing, use a plastic knife.
- Let it cool for an hour before cutting and serving.
- You can also not use a water bath and melt the butter and chocolate in a pan on the stove or in a microwave then transfer to a bowl, but this method makes less dishes.
