● Difficulty: Easy

This intense chocolate brownie is the purest version of the American classic: 70% dark chocolate melted with butter for that fudgy, dense texture that sets it apart from cake, with extra cocoa powder doubling the chocolate intensity and a touch of salt that sharpens every note. The secret to the right texture is not overworking the batter once the flour goes in, and pulling them from the oven while the centre still has a slight wobble.

🛒 Ingredients

9 servings

200g 70% dark chocolate
180g butter
3 eggs
180g sugar
100g flour
30g pure cocoa
1 cdita salt
1 cdita vanilla
100g extra chopped chocolate

👨‍🍳 Step-by-step instructions

Melt chocolate and butter in a double boiler until smooth.
Beat eggs with sugar and vanilla for 5 minutes until whitened.
Pour in the tempered chocolate while continuing to beat.
Sift flour, cocoa, and salt over the mixture; integrate with a spatula.
Add the chopped chocolate.
Bake for 22 minutes at 170°C in a 20×20 lined mold.
Let cool before cutting (the texture improves with rest).

💡 Chef's tip

Don't overbeat the flour: just mix until combined. And remove the brownie when a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs attached, not completely clean.

📝 Our take

This brownie has no tricks: intense dark chocolate, butter, sugar and the exact right baking time. The difference between a good brownie and a mediocre one is pulling it from the oven 3 minutes before it looks done. A centre that melts in the mouth is the sign it is right.
