Fudgy Brownies

Rich, chewy, fudge-like brownies made from scratch. Perfect for gifting during the holiday season. Try them once and you will never buy boxed brownie mix again!

Let me just say this right now – I love chocolate. I have a huge sweet tooth so I am a big fan of desserts in general – but chocolate is my weakness. I know I am not alone, and these fudgy brownies are so chewy, dense and rich that they are sure to satisfy anyone in need of a chocolate fix.

This recipe is also super simple and convenient – all you need is 30 minutes and one bowl to mix everything together. Best of all, it uses ingredients that you most likely already have on hand in your pantry and fridge.

Tips for Making Fudgy Brownies

• When lining the baking pan with foil, be sure to leave enough overhang on the sides so that you can easily lift the cooked brownie out as a whole before cutting it
• Spread out the brownie batter in an even layer when adding it to the lined pan, to ensure even baking
• Once the brownie is done baking, allow it to cool completely before slicing it. This helps ensure a nice, clean cut and allows the rich, chocolatey flavor to develop even further

For this Fudgy Brownies recipe, I Recommend:

• Mixing Bowls – This is a 3-piece set that is great for combining ingredients. I love how easy they are to store and clean.
• Square Baking Pan – This pan is the perfect size for this recipe. It also works beautifully for making bars and cake.
