Starbucks Double Chocolate Brownies {Copycat Recipe}

The brownies are rich, fudgy, not cakey, perfectly chewy, and so easy to make. One bowl, no mixer, and studded with chocolate chunks!

Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chunks divided

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350F and line an 8×8-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil for easier cleanup and spray with cooking spray; set aside.
  2. To a large, microwave-safe bowl add the butter and heat on high power to melt, about 1 minute.
  3. Add the sugar, eggs, vanilla, and whisk to combine.
  4. Add the cocoa powder and stir to combine (Note – If your cocoa powder is particularly lumpy, you may wish to sift it before adding it).
  5. Add the flour, salt, and stir to combine.
  6. Add 1 1/2 cups chocolate chunks and stir to combine.
  7. Turn batter out into prepared pan (it will be thick) and smooth the top lightly with a spatula.
  8. Evenly sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chunks on top, lightly tapping them down so they adhere.
  9. Bake for about 25 to 30 minutes or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter.
  10. Allow brownies to cool in pan on a wire rack for about 2 hours before slicing and serving. I sliced them into 8 generous rectangles similar to how Starbucks does it. Store in an airtight container at room temp or in the fridge if you like your brownies chilled.
