BEST Ever Super Chewy Gooey Brownies
Description
These brownies stand out by combining semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips melted together with butter, creating a rich and smooth base. The dual sugars, including brown sugar, contribute moisture and chewiness, balancing with the cocoa powder and flour to build structure. The batter is mixed until just combined to maintain a tender crumb. Baking at 350 degrees in a 9x9 pan for 35-40 minutes allows you to tailor the final texture: less time yields a fudgier, gooier bite, while longer baking develops a super chewy consistency. Serving with ice cream and hot fudge complements the dense chocolate and adds temperature contrast. Leftover brownies can be reheated briefly to restore warmth and softness.
The recipe's flexibility with baking time and the addition of optional marshmallows before baking offers slight variations in texture and sweetness.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter softened (if using unsalted, increase salt to 1 teaspoon, two sticks
- 1 cup chocolate chips semi-sweet
- ½ cup milk chocolate chips
- 1 ¼ cups sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 3 egg large
- 1 ¼ cups flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup cocoa powder unsweetened
- Ice cream optional, for serving
- hot fudge sauce optional, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a 9x9 inch pan with nonstick foil or parchment paper. In a large microwave safe bowl, microwave semi-sweet chocolate chips for 1 1/2-2 minutes, allow to rest for a couple of minutes before stirring until smooth.
- Add butter, sugars, vanilla, and eggs and mix well. Whisk in flour, salt, and cocoa powder until incorporated. Stir in milk chocolate chips.
- Transfer batter to prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes. *For chewier brownies, cook a little longer, closer to 40-42 minutes. For fudgier, gooey brownies, a little less cooking time, closer to 35.
- Serve immediately with ice cream and hot fudge sauce, or allow to cool completely (best for ultra chewy brownies) before cutting into squares and serving. If you like the chewier texture but still want to serve them warm with ice cream, you can pop them in the microwave individually for about 20 seconds to heat them up.
Notes
- You can fold in 1 cup of mini marshmallows just before baking to add gooey pockets inside the brownies.
- Adjust baking time depending on your texture preference: bake longer for chewier brownies or less for fudgier ones.
- Serve brownies warm with ice cream and hot fudge, or cool completely for a denser chew.
- Reheat individually in the microwave for about 20 seconds if serving warm after cooling.
