These brownies are SO fudgy. SO cakey. SO rich. SO perfect.
In fact, I ran into a problem while tasting them. On the one hand, they are so delicious that you don’t want to stop eating them. Ever. On the other hand, they are so rich that you can only eat a little at a time.
The solution? Enjoying several little brownies throughout the day? Or having just one after dinner, savoring every bite? You decide.
Based on King Arthur Flour's recipe
Ingredients
- 4 ounces semisweet chocolate
- 5 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 cup white whole-wheat flour (or whole-wheat flour)
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F and grease a 9x9" baking pan.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate, butter and olive oil together, stirring until smooth.
- Whisk in the sugars, then add the flour, eggs, vanilla and salt. Stir until well blended.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Using a rubber spatula, smooth the top of the brownies, then sprinkle with chocolate chips. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the edges begin to pull away from the pan.
- Note: You can stir in the chocolate chips instead of sprinkling them on top. They are only on top here because they were a last-minute addition to the recipe. A fantastic, fantastic addition.
- Allow to cool for 10-15 minutes before cutting into squares.

So what do you think? Several little brownies throughout the day? Or just one after dinner?
For the record, I choose savoring one brownie after dinner.
Ohhhhhh – brown sugar in the brownies is the best. It adds moisture and density like nothing else can. I’d have to keep these in the freezer to avoid eating several large brownies throughout the day.
Oh, YUM. I’ve never seen a brownie recipe using olive oil, but I love the idea of using it in baked goods. I’ll have to try these!
those look amazing. I have never made brownies from scratch before but those make me want to do it ASAP..if only I had someplace to bring them to or someone to give them away to..otherwise I would eat the whole pan myself! haha.
I’d say brownies all day and then again after dinner (and before bed). Heheh
Great photos, and we’re totally on the same wavelength!
I’m drooling right now.
I love brownies, and I don’t know why I don’t make them more often!
Hmm, I’d go with the after-dinner brownie, with a scoop of ice cream over the top!
I love to savor one after dinner! These looks perfect.
Yummm. These do look ridiculously fudgy.
yum these brownies look so incredibly rich and fudgy I love how thick they are and how amazing they would taste warm topped with ice cream!
I think Id pick one after dinner too…although I do love a eating brownies all day!
I just wanted to leave a hello note to tell you I adore everything you make, how you present it in pictures and write about it.
Thank you so much! You just made my day
HI!!!!
I just found your blog and I love it! I read your about me and your wedding recap and some of your posts and you seem like such a wonderful woman!
i am a 22 year old recent college grad (from baltimore) who is seeking a job… and the right man! haha.
I am officially going to “follow” you so i can continue to read your recipes and see what your life is all about. cheers!
Thank you so much! I’ll have to check out your blog!
My roommate and I were just talking the other day that we haven’t seen or had a really tasty looking brownie. I cannot WAIT to try these. They look perfect!
My roommate made your brownies today. Tasty!
So glad you enjoyed them!
brownie + almonds + coconut + honey chobani = perfect breakfast.
I know this is a little older post but I HAD to write this. I have finally found the PERFECT brownie recipe and it is all thanks to you!! After trying numerous recipes, the brownies I made either turned out too cake like or…just dry. This recipe was amazing and it uses less than half the butter and fat that most other fudgy brownie recipes call for- I really think the brown sugar is the secret, along with the combination of the other ing. I have to say though that I did use one less egg, just because I really like my brownies chewy and fudgy. Thank you so much Julie- my brownie recipe search is over!!
:)
Bella, your comment just made my day, if not my week. This may be one of the sweetest comments I’ve ever received on one of my recipes. I’m so glad you love the brownies! Thank you!
