What are the four ingredients?

The four ingredients are typically cocoa powder, melted chocolate , eggs, and flour. These basics come together to make a delicious, simple brownie!

How long does it take to make?

Preparation usually takes around 10 minutes, and baking can take 15_20 minutes, depending on your oven. You’ll have brownies ready in about 25_30 minutes!

Do I need any special equipment?

No special equipment is required—just a mixing bowl, a whisk or spoon, and a baking pan. This recipe is super simple!

Can I substitute any ingredients?

Yes, some substitutions work well! For example, you could use a gluten-free flour blend instead of regular flour, or coconut sugar instead of white sugar. Just note that results may vary slightly.

Are these brownies gluten-free or dairy-free?

They can be made gluten-free by using a gluten-free flour alternative, but they are not dairy-free if your recipe includes butter. Simply substitute with oil for a dairy-free version.

How do I make them fudgier or cakier?

For a fudgier brownie, add a bit more cocoa powder or reduce the flour slightly. For a cakier texture, add an extra egg to give it a lighter, cake-like texture.

Can I add anything to this recipe?

Absolutely! You can add chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or a pinch of salt for added flavor. Some even like to add a dash of vanilla extract.

How should I store these brownies?

Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate them for up to a week to keep them fresh.

What size baking pan should I use?

An 8x8-inch baking pan works well for this recipe. It gives the brownies a nice thickness and ensures even baking.

Can I double the recipe?

Yes, you can double the recipe! Just use a larger baking pan, such as a 9x13-inch, and adjust the baking time slightly if needed.

What can I serve brownies with?

Brownies pair wonderfully with a variety of options! For a classic touch, serve them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for that perfect hot-and-cold combination. You can also drizzle some caramel or chocolate sauce on top for extra richness. Fresh berries, like strawberries or raspberries, add a nice fruity contrast, and a dollop of whipped cream is always a good choice. If you want something warm, try pairing brownies with a cup of coffee or hot chocolate.

These rich, fudgy brownies come together with just a few ingredients and minimal effort. Perfect for a quick, indulgent treat!

Ingredients

• 3 large eggs, at room temperature

• 400g chocolate, melted or something like the texture of Nutella

• 25g cocoa powder

• A pinch of salt

• 55g all-purpose flour

Instructions

1. Prepare the Eggs

In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs until they become pale and thick. This step helps give the brownies a rich, airy texture.

2. Add the Chocolate

Slowly pour in the melted chocolate, stirring continuously until well combined with the eggs.

3. Incorporate the Dry Ingredients

Sift the cocoa powder, salt, and flour together, then gently add them to the egg and chocolate mixture. Mix until just combined.

4. Fold Gently

Carefully fold the batter to ensure it remains light and airy. Be careful not to overmix.

5. Bake

Pour the batter into a prepared baking pan. Bake in a preheated fan oven at 175°C (345°F) for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Enjoy your perfectly fudgy brownies! These are best served slightly warm for an extra melt-in-your-mouth experience.
