Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Batter

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 8 oz semisweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp Vietnamese coffee powder (or strong brewed espresso powder)

Condensed Milk Swirl

  • ½ cup sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8×8-inch baking pan by greasing it and lining with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. Melt Chocolate and Butter: In a saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter with the chopped semisweet chocolate, stirring continuously until smooth. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly to prevent cooking the eggs later.
  3. Combine Sugar, Eggs, and Vanilla: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is well combined and slightly fluffy.
  4. Mix Chocolate with Wet Ingredients: Slowly pour the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, stirring gently to combine without overmixing.
  5. Add Dry Ingredients: Sift together the all-purpose flour, salt, and Vietnamese coffee powder into the wet mixture. Fold the ingredients gently until just combined to avoid toughness in the brownies.
  6. Layer Batter and Condensed Milk: Pour half of the prepared brownie batter into the lined baking pan. Drizzle half of the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the batter.
  7. Add Remaining Batter and Condensed Milk: Pour the remaining batter over the condensed milk layer, then drizzle the rest of the condensed milk on top.
  8. Create Swirls: Using a knife or skewer, gently swirl the condensed milk into the brownie batter to create a beautiful marbled effect without overmixing.
  9. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick near the center; it should come out with a few moist crumbs attached but not wet batter.
  10. Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares and serving to ensure clean cuts and rich texture.

Notes

  • Use good quality semisweet chocolate for the best flavor and texture.
  • If Vietnamese coffee powder is unavailable, strong brewed espresso powder is an excellent substitute.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the brownies tender and fudgy.
  • Allow brownies to cool fully before slicing to prevent crumbling.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
