Ingredients
95 g (¾ cups) plain (all-purpose) flour 🌾
2 tablespoons cocoa powder 🍫
1 teaspoon baking powder 🧁
¼ teaspoon salt 🧂
225 g (1 ¼ cups) dark chocolate, chopped 🍫
56 g (¼ cups) butter (salted or unsalted) 🧈
2 eggs (room temperature) 🥚
100 g (¾ cups) caster sugar 🍬
90 g (½ cups) demerara sugar 🍬
1 teaspoon vanilla extract 🍦
85 g (½ cups) dark or milk chocolate chips 🍫
Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat the Oven:
Set your oven to 160ºC (320ºF) with a fan or 170ºC (338ºF) for conventional heating. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2️⃣ Melt Chocolate and Butter:
In a heatproof bowl, combine the chopped dark chocolate and butter. Place the bowl over a pan of simmering water, ensuring the bottom does not touch the water. Stir occasionally until melted and smooth.
3️⃣ Whip Eggs and Sugars:
In a separate medium bowl, use an electric hand whisk on high speed to beat together the caster sugar, demerara sugar, and eggs. Whisk until the mixture becomes very light, thick, and fluffy.
4️⃣ Combine Dry Ingredients:
In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt to ensure no lumps remain.
5️⃣ Integrate Chocolate Mixture:
Gradually fold the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the whipped eggs and sugars. Stir gently to maintain the airiness of the whipped eggs.
6️⃣ Fold in Dry Ingredients:
Carefully fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula, mixing only until just combined to keep the batter light.
7️⃣ Bake the Brookies:
Scoop tablespoons of batter onto the prepared baking tray, spacing them well apart to allow for spreading. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes, or until the brookies are set and crackly on top.
8️⃣ Cool and Finish:
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with sea salt immediately, if desired. Let them cool on the baking tray for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Enjoy these Fudgy Chewy Browkies warm or at room temperature, and feel free to share (or keep them all to yourself)! 😋🍪🍫
