Chocolate Brownies are a thing of beauty. They are without a doubt the dessert that disappears most quickly at home. It’s only on rare occasions that a pan of chocolate brownies lasts more than 24 hours around here. We are completely content eating them straight from the pan. And a warm brownie with a cool scoop of vanilla ice cream and hot chocolate sauce? That’s damn near perfection the way I see it. Many people ask me is there any difference between the brownie and a chocolate cake, yes there’s a huge difference. A Chocolate Brownie is a flat, baked square or bar developed in the United States at the end of the 19th century. It was popularized in both the U.S. and Canada during the first half of the 20th century.
After trying hands on many chocolate brownies recipes, we finally zeroed down to this one. This one always yields results near to perfection. The fudgy, gooey, dark brownie is what we crave for and these chocolate brownies satiate those hankerings.
To get the recipe right, we recommend measure out all the ingredients using a weighing machine. This way the proportion of butter and chocolate is absolutely accurate and even. Over-baking brownies is a sin if you love really fudgy and moist brownies than don’t let them sit in the oven for too long.
So let’s not waste time and find out….
