My Best Tips
Want those perfect clean cuts? Pop them in the freezer for 20 minutes after cooling. Use a hot knife wipe it between cuts. And please don't overbake that's the secret to fudgy middles.
Keep Them Fresh
If your family doesn't devour these immediately like mine does they'll stay perfect in an airtight container for days. I layer them with parchment paper so they don't stick together. Sometimes I'll even freeze a batch they thaw beautifully.
Perfect for Sharing
These brownies are my go to for any gathering. I've brought them to school bake sales potlucks birthday parties you name it. Everyone always asks for the recipe especially when they bite into those gooey chocolate chips.
Mix It Up
Sometimes I add a swirl of peanut butter or sprinkle some sea salt on top. My kids love when I add M&Ms and my husband's favorite is with chopped pecans. That's the fun part about this recipe it's so easy to customize.
Better Than Box Mix
Once you try these homemade brownies you'll never go back to the box. The texture is incredible and you can control exactly how sweet they are. Plus there's something so satisfying about making them from scratch.
Special Occasions
Want to make these extra fancy? Try serving them warm with vanilla ice cream and hot fudge sauce. I do this for dinner parties and everyone goes crazy for it. Don't forget some fresh berries on top for color.
Frequently Asked Questions
- → Why use both weight and cup measurements?
Weight measurements are more precise for baking. Cup measurements work but may affect texture slightly.
- → How do I know when brownies are done?
Top should be crispy and firm to touch. They'll continue cooking as they cool, so slightly underdone is better than overdone.
- → Can I freeze these brownies?
Yes, wrap well and freeze up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
- → Why let them cool completely?
Cooling allows brownies to set properly and makes cutting cleaner. They'll be too soft to cut cleanly when warm.
