Hi Bold Bakers! Even though I’ve been a professional baker for years, there are still some tricks that I unexpectantly CRACK! So I switched up one simple technique for this brownie recipe and created the chewiest brownies known to man. Already have an account? To make the Best-Ever Brownies, you need to use high-quality unsweetened cocoa powder, brown sugar, and bittersweet chocolate (70%) chunks to balance out the sweetness. But to make the chewiest brownies you’ve ever experienced in your life, the trick is to beat the wet ingredients (the butter, oil, sugars, eggs, and vanilla extract) on high for 5 minutes. The mixture will get really thick, which is what you want! Then, you add in the dry ingredients, bake, and enjoy!

What Makes These Brownies Chewy
If you like your brownies chewy, I mean, so chewy they are the polar opposite of my brownie brittle, then you need to bookmark this page! While this recipe calls for the same ingredients as my Crinkle Top Brownies, which has a bunch of delicious textures, beating your wet ingredients and then adding your dry will give you the chewiest brownies. It’s such a simple step; it’s hard to believe it makes such a difference!

Gemma’s Pro Chef Tips For Making Chewy Brownies
You can make this recipe without an electric hand mixer or stand mixer, but for best results, I do recommend using one. Bake until just set and the jiggle is gone from the middle. If you overbake, your brownies will not be gooey and fudgy. Use bittersweet chocolate; it gives a real richness to your brownies. Dark brown sugar gives brownies lovely, deep caramel notes. If you don’t have any on hand, make your own! Don’t be shy with the salt and vanilla extract! Those ingredients are what makes these brownies so irresistible. When serving, I recommend warming the brownies in the microwave for 20-30 seconds. It just makes them so gooey and delicious.
How Do I Store Chewy Brownies?
These brownies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also store them in the freezer for up to 1 month. Be sure to let them come to room temperature before serving!
