Ingredients

  • 12 tablespoons (170 grams) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/4 cup (266 grams) brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup (90 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup (42 grams) cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (170 grams) chocolate, chopped
  • 8 Ferrero Rocher chocolates, chopped

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray an 8×8 inch baking pan with non-stick spray. Lay thick strips of parchment paper across the bottom of the pan in a cross shape to help lift the brownies out after baking.
  2. Step 2: In a medium bowl, combine the melted butter and brown sugar. Once mixed, add the eggs and vanilla extract, then beat until the mixture is smooth and light in color.
  3. Step 3: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt to remove any lumps.
  4. Step 4: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the brownies tender.
  5. Step 5: Fold the chopped chocolate and chopped Ferrero Rocher chocolates into the batter evenly.
  6. Step 6: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  7. Step 7: Bake for 17 to 20 minutes. For firmer brownies, bake a few minutes longer. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick; it should come out with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Step 8: Remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool completely in the pan before lifting out and cutting.

Tips & Variations

  • Use dark or milk chocolate depending on your preference for sweetness and richness.
  • For an extra hazelnut boost, sprinkle some chopped toasted hazelnuts on top before baking.
  • If Ferrero Rocher chocolates are unavailable, substitute with chopped hazelnuts and a drizzle of hazelnut spread mixed into the batter.
  • Do not overbake to keep the brownies fudgy and moist.

Storage

Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to a week or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat briefly in the microwave to soften before serving.

FAQs

Can I use a different size pan?

You can use a 9×9 inch pan but expect thinner brownies that may bake faster. Adjust baking time accordingly, checking for doneness earlier.

How do I keep the brownies fudgy?

Be careful not to overmix the batter and avoid overbaking. Remove brownies from the oven as soon as a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs for the best fudgy texture.

Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Batter

  • 12 tablespoons (170 grams) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/4 cup (266 grams) brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup (90 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup (42 grams) cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (170 grams) chocolate, chopped
  • 8 Ferrero Rocher chocolates, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare Baking Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray an 8×8-inch baking pan with non-stick spray, then lay thick strips of parchment paper crisscross inside the pan to create easy handles for lifting the brownies out later.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the melted butter and packed brown sugar. Stir until fully combined. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and beat the mixture until light in color and thoroughly mixed.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt to remove any lumps and ensure even distribution.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix gently until just combined, taking care not to overmix to avoid tough brownies.
  5. Add Chocolates: Fold the chopped chocolate and Ferrero Rocher chocolates into the batter carefully to evenly distribute the chunks without deflating the mixture.
  6. Pour and Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 17-20 minutes. For firmer brownies, you may bake a few minutes longer, but be cautious not to overbake to keep the moist texture.
  7. Cool and Serve: Remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool completely in the pan. Use the parchment paper handles to lift the brownies out for cutting and serving.

Notes

  • For gooier brownies, bake closer to 17 minutes and check doneness with a toothpick—it should come out with moist crumbs but not raw batter.
  • Using high-quality chocolate and authentic Ferrero Rocher candies will enhance the flavor and texture.
  • You can substitute the all-purpose flour with gluten-free flour to make a gluten-free version, though texture may slightly vary.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
