30 Minute Fudgy One-Bowl Brownies

These quick one-bowl brownies are perfect for when you need a chocolate fix fast. They’re chewy, delicious, and have a classic crinkly top. The recipe uses both melted chocolate and cocoa powder for a really intense chocolatey flavor. They make for an easy cleanup too because you only use one bowl! Quick homemade brownies with minimal clean-up, coming right up!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (113.5 g) butter, unsalted
  • 6 oz (170.1 g) semi sweet chocolate chips, about 1 heaping cup
  • 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
  • 3 (3 large) eggs, large
  • 1 tsp (1 tsp) vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (62.5 g) flour, all purpose
  • 1/4 cup (21.5 g) cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp (0.5 tsp) salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350° F and line an 8x8 inch pan with parchment paper or spray with nonstick baking spray. Clamp down the sides of the pan with clips to hold the parchment paper in place.
  • Melted butter and chocolate in a glass bowl.
    In a microwave safe bowl combine the 1/2 cup butter and 6 oz chocolate. Microwave for 30 seconds at a time stirring in between until the chocolate is completely melted. Up to 90 seconds total. Let the chocolate cool for 5 minutes.
  • Batter for one bowl brownies
    Add in 3 eggs and 1 cup sugar and whip using a whisk or the whisk attachment on high speed for 2 minutes.
  • Switch to a spatula and add in 1 teaspoon vanilla mix until combined. Next add in the 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 cup cocoa powder, and 1/2 tsp kosher salt. Mix until combined.
  • Baked brownies in a parchment line 8x8 pan
    Pour the batter into the lined baking pan and bake for 25 minutes for super fudgy brownies. Allow to cool before cutting in to them!

Notes

Bake for 25 minutes for more fudgy brownies or 28 minutes for more cakey brownies.
I like to use a hand or stand mixer because the longer you whip the eggs in the chocolate the lighter and more crackly the tops of the brownies will be. Whip the egg and chocolate mixture for 3 minutes and the brownies will be lighter and so fudgy.
To line the baking pan I cut 2 small strips of parchment paper and line them across the pan, Use clips attached to the pan to help the parchment stay in place when pouring the batter.
Make sure the brownie batter is evenly distributed so that it bakes evenly.
You can add toppings or anything you would like to the top of the brownies.
