Crackly Top Chewy Brownies

Ingredients

  • 85 g unsalted butter
  • 170 g bittersweet chocolate (55% - 70% range), chopped
  • 19 g Dutch process cocoa powder, sifted
  • 120 g flour, sifted
  • 0.25 tbsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tbsp salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 94 ml canola oil
  • 223 g granulated sugar (can reduce to 190 g if you like your sweets less sweet)
  • 74 g packed brown sugar (if you reduced the first one, reduce this one to 65 g too)
  • 1.5 tbsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 175 degrees C and line your pan with oil or butter and then place a baking paper on top.
  • Melt the chocolate with the butter on medium heat. Then whisk in the cocoa powder and set aside
  • In a small bowl, whisk the sifted flour with the baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  • In a bigger bowl, whisk the eggs, oil, sugars, and vanilla. Keep on going until no clumps are left. Then add the chocolate mix and whisk it in.
  • Finally add the flour mix, whisking until it is all mixed.
  • Pour into the pan and bake at 175 degrees C for 25-29 minutes. A tester in the middle should show little crumbs. If you use a different pan size, it could take a bit less or more time.
  • Cool for 10 minutes then lift out of the pan, cut into 9 big pieces or 16 small ones. Happy baking x
