Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly spray an 8x8 baking dish (not a 9x9 dish or your brownies will overcook) with cooking spray and line it with parchment paper. Spray the parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine the sugar, flour, cocoa powder, powdered sugar, chocolate chips, and salt.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, olive oil, water, and vanilla.
- Sprinkle the dry mix over the wet mix and stir until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan (it'll be thick - that's ok) and use a spatula to smooth the top. Bake for 40 to 48 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with only a few crumbs attached (note: it's better to pull the brownies out early than to leave them in too long). Cool completely before slicing.*** Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. These also freeze well!
THE BEST FUDGY BROWNIES
We've created the perfect brownie by employing a few tips and tricks. Using both semisweet chocolate and cocoa powder gives us the deep and complex chocolate flavor we crave. Cooking the butter until golden brown adds a toasted nuttiness, while the pop of cream provides luscious texture.

Steps:
- Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a 13-by-9-inch baking pan, preferably metal, with nonstick baking spray. Line the pan with parchment paper leaving a 2-inch overhang on the longer sides. Lightly coat with nonstick spray.
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat, swirling occasionally, until the butter is a deep golden color, about 5 minutes; the butter will hiss and spit as the whey evaporates so be careful. As the foam subsides the butter will go from a canary yellow color to golden. When it does, take it off the heat. Add the chocolate and cream to the butter and let it sit, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is melted.
- Sift the flour and cocoa powder through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl. Beat the granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, vanilla, espresso powder and eggs in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Start on low speed and gradually increase to high speed until the eggs are pale, very thick and fluffy, about 8 minutes (start your timer when you get to high speed). Do not be tempted to skimp on the mix time; this step is key to getting the signature shiny, crackled brownie top. Reduce the speed to low and slowly pour the warm chocolate into the eggs; beat until completely incorporated. Gradually add the dry ingredients and beat until just combined; do not overmix. Use a rubber spatula to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl and fold until the batter is completely combined.
- Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until the brownies are glossy and just barely firm, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 205 degrees F, 25 to 35 minutes. Don't let the thermometer touch the bottom of the pan or you will get a much higher reading. (The cook time will be at the higher end of the range if using a glass or ceramic baking dish.)
- Let the brownies cool completely to allow the crumb to set before slicing, about 3 hours.
- Use an offset spatula to loosen the brownies from the sides of the pan. Use the parchment overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Remove the parchment and cut into 24 squares.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Butter and flour a 12 x 18 x 1-inch baking sheet.
- Melt together the butter, 1 pound of chocolate chips, and the unsweetened chocolate in a medium bowl over simmering water. Allow to cool slightly. In a large bowl, stir (do not beat) together the eggs, coffee granules, vanilla, and sugar. Stir the warm chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and allow to cool to room temperature.
- In a medium bowl, sift together 1 cup of flour, the baking powder, and salt. Add to the cooled chocolate mixture. Toss the walnuts and 12 ounces of chocolate chips in a medium bowl with 1/4 cup of flour, then add them to the chocolate batter. Pour into the baking sheet.
- Bake for 20 minutes, then rap the baking sheet against the oven shelf to force the air to escape from between the pan and the brownie dough. Bake for about 15 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Do not overbake! Allow to cool thoroughly, refrigerate, and cut into 20 large squares.
AWESOME BROWNIES
These brownies soothe the most intense chocolate cravings. You can't taste the coffee liqueur; it adds depth and richness. They lend themselves to multiple variations, too! I've added raspberry chips, nuts, etc., all with great success.

- Baked Brownie. This is “THE” Baked Brownie – the one that has been all the rage for years, hailing from the Baked cookbook, and for good reason – it bakes up perfectly dense and fudge-like with that glorious crackly top.
- Better-Than-Box-Mix Brownies. This is my go-to recipe when I want a perfect, traditional brownie. It’s also the one I turn to as a base for creating some of those epic brownie recipes (see the buckeye brownies, below).
- Buckeye Brownies. One of my all-time favorite brownie recipes, featuring the best flavor combo in the world – chocolate and peanut butter! I used my better-than-box-mix brownies, a buckeye-like filling, and topped it with a chocolate/peanut butter ganache.
- Chocolate Fudge Brownies with Chocolate Buttercream Frosting. Because sometimes you just need a little something MORE when it comes to brownies, so you add frosting (and sprinkles!).
- Cream Cheese Brownies. A combination of my love for cheesecake and my love for chocolate are these amazing cream cheese brownies. Perfect little cream cheese swirls running throughout the brownies!
- Frozen Brownie Sundae. I still remember making this the weekend that we moved four years ago, and everyone agreed that having it in the freezer was pretty much the best thing ever.
- Marshmallow Crunch Brownie Bars. One of my first ventures in the world of crazy epic brownie concoctions, and still one of my favorites to this day. They get rave reviews wherever I take them.
- Peanut Butter Cup Crunch Brownie Bars. This is the peanut butter cup version of the marshmallow brownies above, and if you’re a chocolate and peanut butter fanatic like me, you’ll go nuts over these!
