Best Brownie Recipe Ever
Here's a great dessert recipe! My best brownies... Butter, chocolate, flour, eggs and sugar is all you need to make this sticky chocolate treat!
- 4,5 oz unsalted butter (125 g)
- 4,5 oz dark chocolate (125 g), sweet
- 7 oz caster sugar (200 g)
- 3 oz pastry flour (85 g)
- 2 eggs
- salt
-
Rub a baking dish with the teaspoon of unsalted butter and put it aside until needed later. Bring a small pan of water to a boil over medium heat. Put a larger heat-resistant glass bowl on top. Break the dark chocolate up into smaller pieces. Chop up the unsalted butter. Add both the chocolate chunks and the butter to the glass bowl and let them melt over the boiling water (bain marie).
-
Stir well until you get a glossy chocolate mix. Break the eggs in another bowl and add the caster sugar. Stir into a smooth mixture.
-
Remove the bowl of melted chocolate from the boiling water, let it cool for 5 minutes and then add the eggs and sugar mixture.
-
Stir very well and add the the pastry flour.
-
Season with a tiny pinch of salt. Stir the chocolate batter one last time. Don’t beat the eggs too much, the batter has to stay airy and light to make the brownies light.
-
Pour the chocolate batter in the buttered baking dish. Out the dish in a preheated oven at 320°F (160°C) and bake the brownies for 30 minutes. Insert a toothpick in the middle to check. It should come out clean. If the centre is not set yet, put the dish back into the hot oven and bake the brownies for another 5 minutes. Don’t overcook the brownies. Once cooked, remove the brownies from the oven. Leave it to cool in its tin. Cut the brownies up into smaller pieces. Ready to serve!

Easy Dulce de Leche Brownies
Now these dulce de leche brownies were on my recipes to try out list for quite some time.
But the only problem was…
I couldn’t find any ready-made dulce de leche in any supermarket where I lived. I did find some recipes though to make fresh dulce de leche at home. However I have to confess that after reading a couple of recipes I thought it would be better to just sit back and wait until I found the real stuff one day.
And here it was, jars and jars of golden dulce de leche in a supermarket in Spain!
A big jar of that super sugary and tacky stuff traveled back home with me in my luggage.
Spanish Dulce de Leche Caramel
Brownies were the first thing I made.
Gosh, these taste so good…
I also found them even better the day after to be honest! Well, not that there was still a lot left by then. Sugary, rich and sticky. Perfect.
The absolute cinco de mayo dessert if you ask me!
The brownies didn’t last very long.
The dulce de leche was obviously a new flavor to my home crew.
Enjoy!
Easy Dulce de Leche Brownies Recipe
The absolute cinco de mayo dessert if you ask me!
- 9 oz unsalted butter (250 g)
- 12 oz dark chocolate (350 g)
- 7 oz caster sugar (200 g)
- 4 large eggs
- 6 oz plain flour (170)
- 6 tbsp dulce de leche
- salt
-
Rub a baking dish with the teaspoon of unsalted butter and put it aside until needed later. Bring a small pan of water to a boil over medium heat. Put a larger heat-resistant glass bowl on top. Break the dark chocolate up into smaller pieces. Chop up the unsalted butter. Add both the chocolate chunks and the butter to the glass bowl and let them melt over the boiling water (bain marie).
-
Take the bowl off the heat and stir in the caster sugar.
-
Let the melted chocolate cool down well for a couple of minutes just before you add the eggs so they don’t start to scramble.
-
Stir the airy batter quickly. Add the plain flour and a pinch of salt.
-
Give the chocolate batter one last good stir. Pour half of it in the buttered baking dish. Place this in a preheated oven at 356°F (180°C) for 15 minutes. Then remove it from the oven. Let the brownie cake cool for 10 minutes. Then spread the dulce de leche on top of it. Top with the rest of the chocolate batter (and extra dulce de leche if you like). Bake the brownies for another 20 minutes in the hot oven. Let them cool down at room temperature. Slice the brownies up and serve.
