Tips

  • To achieve a shiny, crackly top, beat enough air into your sugar and eggs. This is the secret, so don't skip it. If you don't have a hand mixer, you can use a whisk to achieve this.
  • Don't overmix your brownie batter. Brownies aren't cake; if you mix too much, you'll end up with a cakey texture. Once you add your flour and cocoa powder, just gently fold, no rushing. Take your time and do it gently.
  • If you're on a budget, you can use chocolate chips or any affordable dark chocolate. Collata chocolate is used in this recipe; it's big so it lasts longer, and the taste is amazing because of its quality.
  • Don't be in a hurry after baking. If you test with a skewer or a toothpick and it comes out slightly wet, that's fine; it's not cake, it doesn't need to come out dry. That gooey center is the magic. Pop the brownies into the freezer immediately to help them set before cutting. That's a little hack for clean slices.
