One Bowl Brownies

These gooey and fudgy brownies are the recipe of my dreams. I have a lot of brownies recipes, but this one consistently exceeds my expectations. I love to eat them warm and straight from the pan; they are by far some of the best brownies I have ever had.

These homemade brownies are super fudgy which makes them even better – they’re brownie perfection! They have a rich chocolate flavor and gooey center with a crackly top – the perfect recipe. One bite and you’ll be obsessed!

Ingredients Needed

  • Eggs: The secret ingredient to making these brownie SO fudgy!
  • Cocoa Powder: I used natural cocoa powder. For this recipe, you can use any kind of cocoa powder you have on hand (like dutch process cocoa).
  • Oil: I always use vegetable oil. This replaces the butter, so you have no extra melted microwave butter mess. Oil keeps them super moist too.
  • Chocolate Chips: Grab your favorite brand and put a ton of them in these brownies. Feel free to use chocolate chunks as well.

Variations

  • Brown sugar can be substituted for the granulated sugar.
  • Any kind of cocoa powder may be used.

How to make Fudgy Brownies

  • Whisk dry ingredients.
  • Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, stir in eggs and then oil until completely moistened.
  • Fold in chocolate chips (and nuts, if using).
  • Pour brownie batter into a 9×13-inch baking pan. Bake until a toothpick comes out with just a few crumbs.

Expert Tips

  • You may think 5 eggs is a lot for a recipe like this, but that is how they become super fudgy brownies – so do not miss out!
  • I baked mine on the shorter side because I love my brownies a bit underdone. If you prefer yours completely done or overdone, put them in closer to 26 minutes. Remember to always monitor them throughout baking though, so you can get the best texture that you love.
  • Because there is no baking soda in this recipe, you can use whatever cocoa powder you want, so dutch-processed cocoa powder, unsweetened, and special dark are all fine.
  • You know brownies are done when a toothpick comes out with a few crumbs, they lose their glossy sheen, and they have a crinkly top.
  • Cut brownies with a plastic fork and they won’t stick – they’ll cut easily.

Storage

Store at room temperature for up to 3 days in an airtight container. Freeze them in an airtight container for up to 3 months.

  1. I made these brownies for my family, they were FABULOUS. Want to make them again for the holidays. Lost recipe, so glad I found it. These really are the BOMB!! ❣

  2. I’ve tried many brownie recipes. I’ve ate too many brownies. Still searching for my perfect recipe. Call me crazy but I like the dense little Debbie brownies. Not so much for the flavor but how dense they are. The recipe ingredients are very different from typical brownie recipes. Have I found my recipe? or they aren’t quite that dense?

  3. Perfect brownies. Your blog is so helpful. Thanks for sharing such a nice blog. I try to make it at home and the brownie was so yummy. Please share some more recipe.
