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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Add Chocolates: Fold the chopped chocolate and Ferrero Rocher chocolates into the batter carefully to evenly distribute the chunks without deflating the mixture.
- 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.
- 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.
