Fudgy Chewy Browkies Delight (Printable Version)

Delight in a perfect mix of fudgy and chewy with rich dark chocolate and a touch of vanilla.

# Ingredients Required:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 95 g all-purpose flour
02 - 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
03 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
04 - 0.25 teaspoon salt
05 - 85 g dark or milk chocolate chips

→ Wet Ingredients

06 - 225 g dark chocolate, chopped
07 - 56 g butter, salted or unsalted
08 - 2 large eggs, room temperature
09 - 100 g caster or granulated sugar
10 - 90 g Demerara or raw sugar
11 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

# Guide to Cooking:

01 - Set the oven to 160°C (fan) or 170°C (conventional). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
02 - Combine chopped dark chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl placed over simmering water. Stir occasionally until fully melted and smooth, then mix in vanilla extract.
03 - Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat the caster sugar, Demerara sugar, and eggs until the mixture is pale, thick, and fluffy, approximately 5 minutes.
04 - Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl, then stir in the chocolate chips to evenly distribute.
05 - Gently fold the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the whipped eggs and sugars, preserving as much airiness as possible.
06 - Carefully fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture with a spatula, mixing just until combined to maintain a light batter.
07 - Drop tablespoon-sized dollops of batter spaced apart onto the prepared tray. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes until set with a crackly surface.
08 - Remove from oven and optionally sprinkle with sea salt immediately. Allow to cool on the tray for 10 minutes before transferring to a rack to cool completely.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Utilize high-quality dark chocolate for optimal richness. Demerara sugar contributes a subtle crunch; substitute with raw sugar or additional caster sugar if unavailable. A light sprinkle of sea salt enhances sweetness and intensifies chocolate flavor.
