Vegan Fudge Brownies
Report
These vegan fudge brownies, made with cocoa powder, and bittersweet and unsweetened chocolates, are proof that egg and dairy-free brownies can still be rich, fudgy, and oh-so-chocolatey.

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil plus more for the pan
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup boiling water
- 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate finely chopped
- 3/4 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons instant espresso powder (optional)
- 2 1/2 cups granulated sugar*
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup bittersweet or semisweet chocolate chunks or chips*
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and adjust the oven rack to the lowest position.
- Line a 13-by-9-inch (33-by-23-cm) baking pan with parchment paper, making sure there’s some overhang past the edges of the pan. Brush the parchment with oil.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the boiling water, unsweetened chocolate, cocoa, and espresso powder, if using, until well combined and the chocolate melts. Stir in the sugar, oil, and vanilla.
- Using a rubber spatula, stir the flour mixture into the chocolate mixture until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips or chunks.
- Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake until the surface is crackly and a toothpick inserted halfway between the edges and center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Let the brownies cool in the pan on a wire rack for 2 hours.☞ TESTER TIP: If you bake your brownies in a glass baking dish, cool them for 10 minutes in the dish, then remove and cool completely on a wire rack.
- Using the parchment overhang, lift the brownies from the pan and let the brownies cool completely on the wire rack, at least 1 hour and preferably overnight. Seriously. We can’t overstate the importance of these brownies being completely cool before you dive in. And they’re even better the next day, so you may as well just resist the temptation and wait until tomorrow.
- Cut into squares and serve. (Brownies can be stored at room temperature for up to 4 days.)
Notes
- Following a strict vegan diet? Check the labels on your chocolate chips and sugar. Some chocolate chips have dairy in them. And not all granulated sugars are processed in a vegan manner (although to our knowledge all organic granulated sugar is vegan).
