Gooey, rich, and super chocolatey triple chocolate brownies!

‘Back to basics’

So, I thought I would start a new series on the blog – ‘Back to Basics’. This is because I have a lot of themed or flavoured bakes on my blog, but some of the actual basics haven’t been covered. I technically have a triple chocolate brownies post on my blog, and these brownies are the exact same, but they’re my Christmas tree brownies. I thought it would be best to do a fresh new post for these beauties!

The ‘Back to Basics’ series will literally cover the basic of baking recipes… traybakes, cakes, cheesecakes etc, but as I was in the mood for a super chocolatey flavour, I thought brownies has the best place to start! Also, my mum has been bugging me for a good while now to make a batch of these, so I thought I would oblige to keep her sweet.

Recipe experimentation

I make my brownies in a particular way, as for years and years I struggled with brownies. There are so many different methods out there, and I often found that they took far too long to bake. As long as the brownies have got hot, the gooeyness doesn’t really matter and its not going to kill you, so no brownies were ever harmed in my experiments.

Often, I used to use a recipe that briefly mixed the butter, eggs and sugar so the mixture itself was completely different, but after trying out a few recipes such as the BBC Good Food recipe, I much preferred the whisking technique.

The whisk method

When you put the whisking technique side by side with a different one, I often find you can even just see the differences. The look, texture and more. I much much MUCH prefer this whisking method.

With this method, you basically whisk together the eggs and sugar to a really thick mousse, and its what gives the brownies their texture. You MUST whisk them for basically a really long time until the mixture is much much paler, thicker, and more than doubled in volume. If you briefly mix, it probably won’t work as well. Also, when you then mix the rest of the ingredients, mix them BY HAND so you don’t deflate the mousse.

Stand/hand mixers

I like 99% of the time use my stand mixer for these kinda thangs, as I find it SO much easier, but I get that not everyone has a stand mixer. You can also use a simple electric hand whisk, and its 100% worth it. If you’re in the UK, you can get a basic hand mixer for under £15, and even cheaper in some other actual shops, and this makes baking so so much easier.

Even with a hand mixer, you can get the texture you want. It might just take a smidge longer, but again… you’re going to save your arm and probably your brownies! It is completely up to you however though! 

Folding

When you fold the melted chocolate/butter, and flour/cocoa powder into your egg mousse mix, you want to be as careful as you can, because if you go and beat it all in you might cause your mixture to be too runny.

I can often get comments saying that peoples brownies are taking far too long to bake, and thats down to the mix. People can say they followed the recipe “to a T” all they like, but something went wrong. It can be down to ingredients, but usually… its the mix with brownies. Too liquid, not mixed enough, etc.

Chocolate

For the actual chocolate chips in the recipe, you can use supermarket own chocolate, cadburys chunks, galaxy etc… but I wouldn’t make them too large. For the ones in the pictures, I used Callebaut chocolate chips because I love them, but equally I often use Tesco’s own chocolate bars that come in at 45p per 100g of chocolate.

This is obviously cheaper than Cadburys which can often be £1 per 100g. HOWEVER… for the base of the brownie mixture, YOU MUST USE DARK CHOCOLATE. 70% OR DARKER. No, you can’t taste it like a chunk of dark chocolate, it just makes it so fudgey and delicious, and it naturally sweets so you do NOT need to worry.

Honestly, these brownies are SO GOOD, so I hope you all love these as much as everyone I know does. Enjoy! And I will be posting another ‘Back to Basics’ soon…! x

Triple Chocolate Brownies!

Gooey, rich, and super chocolatey triple chocolate brownies!
Print Pin Rate
Category: Traybakes
Type: Brownies
Keyword: Chocolate
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Servings: 16 Pieces
Author: Jane's Patisserie

Ingredients

  • 200 g dark chocolate (70%+ cocoa content)
  • 200 g unsalted butter
  • 3 large eggs (or 4 medium)
  • 275 g caster sugar
  • 100 g plain flour
  • 50 g cocoa powder
  • 100 g white chocolate (Chips/Chunks)
  • 100 g milk chocolate (Chips/Chunks)
  • 100 g dark chocolate (Chips/Chunks)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 180C/160C Fan and line a 9″ square baking tray with parchment paper.
  • Melt together the unsalted butter and dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of boiling water, on the microwave for 1-2 minutes until melted. Leave to the side to cool to room temperature!
  • Using an electric whisk/stand mixer, whisk together the eggs & caster sugar for a few minutes until the colour has turned pale, is very mousse like, and is double the original volume of the amount of eggs + sugar! 
  • You will know its done because when you lift the whisk up out of the mix it should leave a trail for a couple of seconds before disappearing!
  • When whisked, pour the cooled chocolate mix over eggs and fold together carefully. It might take some time, but be patient – you don’t want to knock out the air you made up on the previous step!
  • Once completely combined, sift the cocoa powder and plain flour on top of the chocolate mix and then fold together again – still be careful to not knock out the air!
  • Once combined well, fold through the chocolate chips and pour into the prepared tin – bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes! Once baked, leave to cool in the tin completely.

Notes

  • These triple chocolate brownies will last in an airtight container for 1 week!
  • If you find they're a bit hard to cut, stick them in the fridge for an hour and it'll make it a lot easier!
  • If they're not done in the time stated, then stick them in for longer, and cover with foil to prevent burning
  • They should be done when they're slightly wobbling when you shake the tin
  • I use this 9" square tin in this recipe!
  • Recipe updated May 2021 - flour used to be 90, cocoa powder used to be 35g. Both recipes work, I just much prefer the increased flour/cocoa. 

 

ENJOY!

    Hi Jane. Have you used Callebaut Chunks of Callets fro this recipe? They look like chunks? I tend to use Melier chocolate because I like the shape of the pieces as well as the quality, but Melier is expensive! I’ve not used Callebaut before and want to buy in bulk for cost effectiveness.

    What do you recommend please?

    I love these brownies so much and want to make them for my wedding favours in August, can they be frozen after they’ve been made and cooled?

    • Jane's Patisserie on January 17, 2024 at 2:33 pm

      Yes, they can!



    • Zoe Whale on February 3, 2024 at 6:41 pm

      How long can they stay frozen for and need to defrost? I was thinking about doing the same thing!

    Made these as my first ever brownies, turned out amazing. Even if it did take 30min to whisk as I had to do it by hand! Would do again just for these brownies.
    Next time could I use chopped bars of chocolate instead if chips or would it melt into the mixture too much to leave a more chunky texture than small chocolate chips give?

  4. Rads on December 20, 2023 at 3:08 pm

    Hi Jane! What is the best way to reheat these brownies please to serve warm if I make them a day ahead. I’m planning on making them on Christmas eve for Christmas day.

  5. Rosie on December 17, 2023 at 12:21 pm

    I’ve made these brownies many times and each time they have been 1000000/10. I was wondering if light brown sugar can be used as substitute for caster sugar?

    Hiya, I’ve been using your recipes since lockdown i feel like a pro now.

    My colleague has set me a challenge for egg free ones due to her allergy.

    Any suggestions for the egg replacement please, I’ve looked online and it seems quite complicated. Please don’t let me fail 🙂

    • Jane's Patisserie on December 6, 2023 at 10:47 am

      Hiya! It would be best to follow my vegan brownie recipe but use dairy butter and chocolate still x



  7. Linda A on November 8, 2023 at 9:54 am

    I love this recipe, but they were just too rich. The dark chocolate overpowered the taste. Can you recommend anything to balance it out?

    • Jane's Patisserie on November 11, 2023 at 8:42 am

      They are meant to be rich and fudgey, you can use vanilla extract or use a sweeter chocolate chip?



    • Hanna on December 15, 2023 at 5:48 am

      I always add one tsp of vanilla extract, and that makes for me the difference. Its my favorite recipe BY FAR 🙂



  8. Barbara on November 6, 2023 at 8:59 am

    Can I use golden caster sugar in these Brownies to replace white caster sugar?
    I have made these gorgeous pieces of loveliness several times but have lots of golden caster sugar & wondered if I can swop in.
    Thank you.

  9. Charlotte Jones on October 31, 2023 at 8:47 pm

    Hi, I followed the recipe and baked them for half an hour, they were still wobbling so ended up leaving for nearly an hour and just a slight wobble when removing from oven, after 30 mins cooling they hardened, I left them in the fridge for an hour and half and I’ve cut in to them and they’re wet in the middle, I can’t get brownies right 😫

    • Jane's Patisserie on November 7, 2023 at 2:48 pm

      What chocolate did you use for the base brownie, and how did you mix it? x

  10. Dylan on October 21, 2023 at 10:08 am

    Absolutely love this recipe! So rich and indulgent! I was just wondering if you could make these using oil instead of butter?

    • Zara on December 8, 2023 at 4:33 pm

      Hey, I am also wondering the same. If we can use half butter and half oil?



  11. Mel on September 23, 2023 at 10:20 pm

    What ratio of ingredients would I use the foil traybake trays, they’re 13inch x 8inch (1inch deep too) I wanted to bake and leave in the tray and decorate the top

    Hi. Love this recipe so much. It’s my absolute go to for brownies. I was just wondering can these be frozen once cooked? Thank you x

    • Jane's Patisserie on September 7, 2023 at 2:00 pm

      Yes, they can!! I am so glad you loved them x



  13. Charlie on June 8, 2023 at 3:09 am

    hey, i only have salted butter, would it still work if i used that instead of unsalted butter?

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 12, 2023 at 4:50 pm

      Yes, it works really well!

      Yum! Best recipe I have found for brownies. Although the recipe says 25-30 mins at 160 fan, mine take approx 35 mins. Nonetheless they are perfect every time.



    • Jane's Patisserie on June 19, 2023 at 11:29 am

      Amazing! Ovens can really vary so it’s natural for timings to vary somewhat. x



  14. Olivia on June 7, 2023 at 2:55 pm

    Hey!
    I love these brownies, I make them a lot! I was looking to make more and use a 12x 9 tin!
    What would the measurements be for this? I’m terrible at being able to work out the maths of it all!
    Also, would it be roughly same amount of time in oven too?
    Thanks so much
    Liv

  15. Charlotte Hudson on May 7, 2023 at 5:14 pm

    Hi. I love these brownies but they are taking so long to cook. After the required time they are still really soggy in the middle. I cook for extra 5 minutes at a time but I am needing to do this quite a few times. I have adjusted the temperature to 190 but it’s still the same. I follow the recipe completely. Not sure what I am doing wrong.

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 9, 2023 at 9:37 am

      Hiya – it’s worth checking if you are using the correct size tin, a metal tin, the oven temp is correct with a thermometer, and you are using dark chocolate in the base and not substituting. Checking brownies fresh out of the oven won’t work as they will still be gooey, so you need to bake to a small wobble in the middle and then cool fully in the tin, then you can set in the fridge for a few hours to help set them. x



  16. AL on April 17, 2023 at 2:01 pm

    Hi Jane,

    I was wondering if this recipe would work if i used a mini muffin tray. And if so what cues would i be looking for to see if they are done as they’ll be smaller.

    • Abbie on November 16, 2023 at 8:20 pm

      Hi, I have made these but they are so dry and almost cake like. Do you know why this would be?
      I just can’t seem to master the gooey brownie texture



    • Jane's Patisserie on November 24, 2023 at 11:13 am

      That definitely means they are over baked x



  17. Charl on March 5, 2023 at 4:40 pm

    Not really a ‘hack’ or whatever, but switched the 200g of plain chocolate to salted dark chocolate (still 70%) and found it really balanced out the mix 😍 love the recipe, thank you 🙌

  18. Nicola Christie on February 7, 2023 at 9:15 am

    Hey. I want to do these brownies in a bigger tin a 9 x 13 tin. What would the measurements be.

    • Damaris Brown on March 24, 2023 at 8:53 am

      You would need half the amount of each ingredient again. So 100g flour would be 150g flour. 50g coco would be 75g. Hope that helps.



    • Kate on August 25, 2023 at 12:36 pm

      I use the same recipe in a 9inch tin and it works out fine for 25 mins x

      Hey Jane,
      But random but do you think I could add raspberries to this as a little extra?



  19. Becki on December 7, 2022 at 5:48 pm

    Hi I don’t really like brownies with chu ks in I prefer just a plain one could I leave the chocolate chunks out and could I just use 200g of the choc chips

    • Jane's Patisserie on December 15, 2022 at 1:23 pm

      Hiya! The brownies work fine plain! Though, the base mix still needs 200g chocolate. Hope this helps! x



  20. Pam on December 7, 2022 at 4:55 pm

    Hi Jane

    You mentioned using 70% coco solid, is it vital that this is used? I couldn’t see any dark chocolate in the supermarket being 70% do you have any advice if something else could be used in its place?
    Thanks

    • Jane's Patisserie on December 15, 2022 at 12:58 pm

      Hiya! Sometimes supermarket own chocolate can be 70%, or Lindt do it! I really recommend using this for the best results! Hope this helps! x



  21. Laura on November 30, 2022 at 10:15 pm

    Hi! Please can you help…I’ve made these to the exact recipe and my top / crust always comes out paper thin and separates from the brownie – when cooked and cut it just flakes off. Is there a reason this would happen?

    • Jane's Patisserie on December 6, 2022 at 9:59 am

      Hiya! This sounds like it is over whipped. Hope this helps! x

    I always choose brownies for a pudding wherever I go. I always choose brownies if buying from a shop to take away. I LOVE brownies. I’ve tried different recipes and they have been good. But, this recipe, OMG. I am obsessed. This is just the best. I made them again 2 days ago using using Sainsbury’s own brand 200g chocolate bar (£1) and their own choc chips. It’s the most perfect brownie I have tasted in my life! Jane’s recipes have now overtaken everywhere else… no longer is BBC my go-to recipe finder. Just got to now master the blondie…

  24. Amie on September 29, 2022 at 1:34 pm

    White caster or golden? Or a mix?

    • Jane's Patisserie on October 6, 2022 at 3:53 pm

      Hiya! I use white caste. Hope this helps! x



  25. Holly on July 18, 2022 at 12:27 pm

    Hi Jane,

    We are currently baking brownies on possibly the hottest day ever (37 degrees) We have accidently used out of date flour, is this okay or should we quit now?

    Thanks!

    • Jane's Patisserie on July 26, 2022 at 2:37 pm

      Hiya! You should be fine – how did they turn out?! x



  26. Faith on July 11, 2022 at 12:47 pm

    Hi,
    Really need some help! Please Would I be able to use this recipe in 2 – 5×7 inch tin? Would it make two. Many Thanks

    • Cristina on August 2, 2022 at 9:18 pm

      I’m not Jane but I usually calculate the area of a baking tin if I’m changing size. 9×9 in the recipe is 81 square inches. 5×7 is 35 square inches, so times two would be 70 square inches. You’d have taller brownies but it is similar. You would also want to check them for doneness at least 5 minutes earlier.



  27. Baishakhi on June 21, 2022 at 5:12 am

    It looks awesome. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

  28. Daw on June 1, 2022 at 11:00 am

    I have made these brownies over 20 times and they are always a hit(currently have a batch in the oven)! We’ve made them with choc chips, broken choc, and Easter eggs. Also once I didn’t have enough eggs and so I added a bit of full fat milk and they were still awesome. Thank you!

    • Rebecca on July 7, 2022 at 1:01 pm

      Do you need to add the chocolate in them? Or can you leave the chunks out?



    • Jane's Patisserie on July 8, 2022 at 10:36 am

    Would I be able to add banana to this recipe? And would I need to remove any eggs? Thank you

  31. Aysha on April 30, 2022 at 1:37 pm

    Hi Jayne,
    I absolutely LOVE these brownies, I make them all the time and they’re incredible.
    If I wanted to make them thicker eg I use 1.5x recipe (same tin size) would I need to lower the oven temp and cook for longer ?

  32. Rose on March 30, 2022 at 6:26 pm

    Hi!
    I’ve made these brownies loads of times before and always a hit but I want to add macadamia nuts, will they dry them out or do I need to adapt the rest of the recipe at all?
    Thanks

    • Jane's Patisserie on April 6, 2022 at 2:43 pm

One of my colleagues used to be a pastry chef and work in a fancy bakery and she said they were even nicer than the brownies they sold there! So I recommend giving these brownies a try!!



  35. Steph on January 16, 2022 at 5:22 pm

    Hi Jane, these look AMAZING ! What is the difference between a large and medium egg? I’m assuming there is a weight difference but im not sure what that is?

    I follow all your brownie recipes, thank you. Am also looking to purchase your book as a Christmas gift to myself 🙂

    If I use a 8”x10” tray do I need to up any of the ingredients ?

    Or does an 8×10 equate to a 9×9 tin ?

    • Gareth on April 15, 2023 at 2:23 pm

      9×9=81 inch²
      8×10=80 inch²
      Not enough difference to worry about

    Hi Jane. Just wondered if this recipe could be adapted to fit a 6″ or 8″ round tin to make a bottom layer of a cake. Want to make a 3 tier cake for the wife’s birthday with bottom layer brownie and 2 layers of chocolate sponge. Or is it just easier to cut tye brownie in a circle after baking in the square tin. Thanks

    Hi, I was just looking at brownie pictures, and I was just wondering have you used chocolate bars chopped up, as in the picture they look very chunky and too large to be chocolate chips ?

    • Danielle on October 20, 2021 at 7:16 pm

      We always use a chocolate bar and cut them into chunks find it works so much better than chips 🥰



  43. Lonan Brigid Mooney on September 6, 2021 at 6:00 pm

    Hello Jane! Just wondering, in a pinch, could you use 50% dark chocolate for the base?

    • Sheridan on October 17, 2021 at 4:50 pm

      Looking at the other comments, seems like it has to be over 70% 🙂



    • Emma on December 1, 2021 at 8:40 pm

      Can these brownies be frozen?



    • Jane's Patisserie on December 2, 2021 at 2:32 pm

      Yes! They can be frozen for up to 3 months! Hope this helps x

      Hi, do you remember what the original recipe is? i know the coco/ flour was 35/70 or 30/75 (please to remind me if you can) but has the amount of butter changed too? I’m autistic and I can notice the difference but I can’t figure it out and it been making really uneasy.
      I, too LOVEEEED these and my opinion those were better than this recipe. Pls help 🙂



    • Jane's Patisserie on April 29, 2022 at 10:36 am

      Hiya! The original recipe is 200g dark chocolate, 200g unsalted butter, 90g plain flour, 35g cocoa powder (as well as the rest). The original recipe was altered to make it easier to measure out – but there is no real difference in the two! Hope this helps! x



  45. Emma on August 22, 2021 at 9:12 pm

    My kids said they’re too chocolatey. Who knew that was even possible??? I’m not sure they can really be my kids 😂

    Which of your many brownie recipes are the least chocolatey, or use more milk choc than dark?

      Hi Jane!

      I tried these brownies as first attempt went down like a treat for the family!! Thank you!

      After cooling on a wire rack the top and bottom of the brownies went hard but the middle stayed soft. Would you kindly advise on how to keep it soft from top and bottom. I did later cover it with cling film to see if it would help, it did alittle bit. Just hoping to give these as a gift and wanted to know how to prevent hard top n bottom?
      Is there something I’m doing wrong while mixing ingredients or oven?

      Much appreciated xxx



    • Jane's Patisserie on April 26, 2022 at 2:14 pm

      Hiya! This sounds like your oven was slightly too hot! Hope this helps! x



  46. Riya on August 17, 2021 at 6:15 pm

    Hi Jane,

    Could you suggest an alternative to eggs for this recipe?

    Thanks

    • Emma on August 22, 2021 at 9:14 pm

      I’m sure there’s a vegan brownie recipe on here somewhere.

    Hi Jane,

    There are so many comments on here, so I’m sorry if I repeat something that has been asked already.
    Do you think crispy M&M’s would work in place of some of the chocolate? Would it be best to do half and half or would full crispy be okay?

    • Jane's Patisserie on August 4, 2021 at 1:51 pm

      Yes they’d work in place of, or half and half with the chocolate chips!

      These came out perfect. As suggested, when cool put them in the fridge. They were soft and fudgey as brownies should be. A complete hit.

    Hi Jane,

    Have you got any tips for adding a shot of espresso to this? would that work?

    • Jane's Patisserie on July 29, 2021 at 1:36 pm

      Hiya – yes you can that should be delicious, x



  49. Yasmine on July 25, 2021 at 11:06 am

    Hi Jane, the recipe looks delicious! I was just wondering whether you’ve ever made these with gluten free plain flour, or whether you think they’d turn out okay if I used gf flour? Thank you x

    • Jane's Patisserie on July 29, 2021 at 12:05 pm

      Heyy! I haven’t actually tried these gluten free – but I don’t see why this wouldn’t work! x



    • Emma on August 22, 2021 at 9:16 pm

      I did this today with plain gf flour. The main body of the brownie was pretty normal, but the crackly top crumbled a bit & some fell off.



    • Izzy on September 1, 2021 at 2:01 pm

      I recently tried these with gluten free flour and they are just as delicious!!



    • H on June 22, 2022 at 4:34 pm

    Hi Jane,
    the new website looks amazing!
    I was wondering if you can help me, how would I make these coffee/espresso brownies?
    Also would I be able to remove the 300g of chocolate inside or is that crucial?

    Many thanks

    • Lee Sheehan on July 28, 2021 at 11:01 am

      Hi Sophie,

      I have the same question, i have previously used a Nadiya recipe but Jane’s recipes work a lot better.

      Hopefully we will both find out soon.



    • thereza smith on October 4, 2021 at 4:27 pm

      I made these brownies without the
      chocolate chips (forgot to add them!) and
      they turned out lovely. So no I don’t think it’s crucial to include them.

    Thank you!

    • Jane's Patisserie on July 25, 2021 at 9:19 am

      They can typically freeze for 3+ months, and I use a freezeproof container with parchment paper between layers of brownies!



  52. Katrina on July 19, 2021 at 4:26 pm

    I need to cool my brownies quickly can I put them in the freezer to cook and set and how long for?

  53. Georgia Day on July 13, 2021 at 9:21 am

    Hi was wondering , do these have the chewy texture as that’s what I’m looking for =) also mu sister is dairy intolerant so was going to use flora, as it says baking spread do you think this would be okay?

  54. Ayesha on July 10, 2021 at 10:31 pm

    Hello! Hope you’re well! Would you recommend any particular chocolate bar to use as chunks? I used Sainsbury’s own chocolate bars in white, dark and milk. They’re quite thick but to my surprise they melted in the oven when i expected them to be chunky and give some texture. I’d love actual chunks like the ones in your pics! Thank you xx

    • Jane's Patisserie on July 19, 2021 at 4:36 pm

      I just use any random bars, or chocolate callets!

    This is from FAR the best brownie recipe I’ve ever made! However the chocolate chips melt all the time and I don’t have this crusty aspect inside the brownie. I use the Dr. Oetker chocolate chips. Is there any tip or something that I should be doing differently?

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 28, 2021 at 7:46 pm

      It may be that because they are smaller they melt quicker – try chunks of chocolate chopped from a bar instead and see if it helps! x

    These are sooooo good! I’m curious – if I baked these without chocolate chips, would they still set up the same? Additionally. I’m wanting more of a firm but still fudgey brownie. Is this possible? Would I just bake for longer? Thank you!!

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 10, 2021 at 11:54 am

      Hey, they will be slightly less gooey without the chocolate chips and for a fudge brownie bake for the same amount of time but put them in the fridge overnight xx



  57. Sarah Cavanagh on June 5, 2021 at 8:57 am

    This so great recipe . How do I stop it from cracking so much on top? When I cut it lots of the top comes off. You don’t seem to have a crust one top of yours? X

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 10, 2021 at 10:52 am

  66. Lww on May 9, 2021 at 4:32 pm

    This is not my favourite brownie recipe on the Internet! I didn’t have dark chocolate so used a bar of galaxy choc instead and added chopped enchanted eggs aswell as choc chips. Put 100g of flour instead of just 90g and added a teaspoon of chilli powder (enough to give you a bit of warmth but nothing else) so ooey, gooey and delicious. Can’t promise I’m not going to eat the entire thing before the days over 🤣

    • Lww on May 27, 2021 at 10:05 am

      That was ment to say now. I’m sticking to the lower amount of flour and coco powder as I like them gooey

    Made these twice now and they taste incredible, I’ve tried a few recipes and not been able to get that fudgy middle without it feeling underdone. Just curious the second time I used clover as I didn’t have enough unsalted butter and the chocolate chips have all sunk to the bottom. Would that have caused that or did I do something else wrong along the way?

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 8, 2021 at 2:23 pm

      Hello, yes it definitely could have been that as its not proper butter xx



    • Lww on May 9, 2021 at 2:59 pm

      I find dusting the choc chips in flour helps stop them sinking so I chuck them in with the flour and cocopowerder whil I’m seiving it mix that in them the flour coated chips go in after. Seems to work regardless of whether you use butter or marge in baking anything for me

    Hello Jane.
    I loooove love this receipe. Hands down the best one I came across. I wanted to bake them 10 inch or 12 inches square trays.
    But I dont want them to be too thin do you think I should make 1 and 1/2 batter for the 10 inch? And double for the 12 inch?? I like to keep the thickness of the 9 inch tray. Please advice, thank you x.

    • Jane's Patisserie on April 26, 2021 at 2:51 pm

      Hey! Ahh thank you so much this makes me so happy! I genuinely would try to stick to the correct size tin as I don’t think a 12 inch tray won’t bake properly at all because of the size unfortunately xx

    There is absolutely nothing basic about this recipe!! I bought a 9 inch tin just to make these and it was sooo worth it. There is more chocolate in here than I have baked with before and it was amazing. These are the most deliciously fudgy, chocolately brownies you can bake. I can’t wait to do the rest of the back to basics series 😁

  78. Lola on April 9, 2021 at 11:54 pm

    Yeah, I am allergic to dark chocolate so what can I do, Jane?
    I find this recipe highly discriminative towards me and my other dark chocolate allergens. I thought I could leave the dark chocolate out but in previous comments, you have said the dark chocolate (the thing I can die from) is ‘vitally important’. I really want to eat these brownies though, what do I do?

    • Jane's Patisserie on April 10, 2021 at 12:05 pm

  85. Evie on March 17, 2021 at 9:18 pm

    Hello! I was wondering how long roughly you would usually whisk these for? I made your Bailey’s Brownies before (absolutely INCREDIBLE) and even after mixing with a hand whisk on full blast for about half an hour, although the mixture had increased in size and thickened, I definitely wouldn’t say it had doubled in volume or was a mousse consistency! Was just wondering whether it needs to be a lot longer than that. 🙂 Thank you so much!!

    • Jane's Patisserie on March 17, 2021 at 9:21 pm

      Half an hour probably means its been over done as it really shouldn’t take that long at all!

      Absolutely ❤ these although they take ages to bake. I’ve read through others comments and notice the problem may be the dark chocolate for the base. Can you advise what one is best to use. I’ve used Cadburys dark so maybe thats the reason why they take so long to bake.



    • Jane's Patisserie on April 13, 2021 at 8:32 pm

      You need to use one that is 70%+ cocoa content and unfortunately the Cadbury’s one isn’t!! x



  86. Kathy on March 16, 2021 at 12:26 pm

    Hi Jane,
    Your recipes are by far the best. I use your base brownie mix and add different flavours. However I’m just wondering can you use white granulated sugar instead of light brown and Stork or a cake spread instead of unsalted butter?
    Also I’ve found that the recipe halved fits a 8” round tin perfectly but I’m hit and miss with the bake time. What would you recommend?
    Thank you. X

    • Jane's Patisserie on March 23, 2021 at 3:24 pm

      I would recommend caster sugar instead of white granulated! And stork can be used yes!



  87. Mia on March 15, 2021 at 2:07 pm

    Hi Jane! I’m looking to make these soon but I want to add marvellous creation instead of chocolate chunks or add the ingredients of marvellous creations into the brownie (the popping candy, jelly beans and chocolate beans etc.) separately. Would this work and which way would you suggest doing it?

    • Jane's Patisserie on March 23, 2021 at 3:18 pm

      So some ingredients such as the popping candy and jelly beans etc may be best to add on at the end for decoration, but otherwise I’d say its worth a go!



  88. Maleeha on March 12, 2021 at 11:35 am

    Hi Jane, hope your well. If I was to make this brownie recipe in a 9/10inch round tin, and make a ‘brownie cake’ would this work? Would I potentially need to do anything different?

    Made these yesterday for my family and they are nearly gone! They are amazing. I have some shallow boxes I was hoping to box some up in to give to relatives, the brownies are slightly too tall. Do you think I could half the recipe and split between two 9” tins? Or would it be best to use 2 8”?

    • Jane's Patisserie on February 28, 2021 at 11:29 am

      I would use 2×8 – they would be far too thin in two 9″ x



  96. Jane on February 25, 2021 at 1:07 pm

    Hi,
    Do you think I could make this in a 9” round tin without changing the quantities and just increase the baking time slightly or would it be too thick?

I know my oven is useless, so I have to turn it up slightly (170 instead of 160) but they still take forever. It must be something I’m doing, am I not whisking the eggs and sugar enough? Am I mixing too much? I’m really careful when folding too… Help oh goddess of baked goods 🙏

    • Jane's Patisserie on February 25, 2021 at 2:32 pm

      Oh no!! Sorry you’re having troubles. What dark chocolate are you using for the base? xx

    Hi Jane,

    Used your recipes loads and they’ve all tasted fantastic, thank you so much.
    Ive made these particular brownies a few times. Ive just made then again and they seem to be missing the flaky top this time, and I can’t work out why? This time I used better quality chocolate and butter rather than stork, any chance it could be this? I was also a bit unsure on when the eggs and sugar were mixed enough, can you whisk them too much?

    • Jane's Patisserie on February 21, 2021 at 9:00 am

      I think the flakey top is usually down to the whisking of the eggs/sugar – butt its not a bad thing to be missing! Mine had never been as flakey as in the photos haha! x

    Hi Jane,
    This is my absolute favourite brownie recipe! I’m making it tomorrow and I’m just wondering if I could do 100g mini eggs crushed, 100g milkybar eggs crushed and then 100g dark chocolate chips?
    I know you’ve done an Easter brownie recipe which looks amazing, but I’d prefer to do this recipe as it has less chocolate added to it!
    Thanks in advance😊

  102. Maleeha on February 15, 2021 at 7:43 pm

    Hi Jane, if I wanted to make this batch but wanted half the brownies to be choc chip and half to be kinder? Before I add the choc chips could I separate the mixture and add the chocolate? I know there is a separate recipe for kinder but I was wanting to bake in the same try and use the same base?

    • Jane's Patisserie on February 15, 2021 at 9:08 pm

      Yes! If you split the brownie mix into two bowls carefully and just carefully fold the bits through it would be fine! x

  104. Jade on February 13, 2021 at 11:13 pm

    Hi Jane
    I’ve tried making these tonight in a 8″ silicone tray and theyve crisped on edges and remained wobbly in the middle. I’m also using a conventional gas oven no fan at gas mark 4. Any advice to get them right? Xx

    I need to nail a brownie they haunt me x x x

    • Jane's Patisserie on February 14, 2021 at 11:11 am

      An 8″ tin/mould is too small, and it needs to be a 9″ for best results! The depth is too much so you’d struggle to get the correct bake x



  105. Angela Phillips on February 9, 2021 at 8:30 pm

    Hi Jane. Could I possibly swap 100g of choc chips for 100g of chopped walnuts as I love walnuts in brownies? I’ve made a few of your Brownie recipes and they are all fab!

    • Jane's Patisserie on February 9, 2021 at 9:11 pm

    Awesome recipe, thanks. Mine came out dark brown and slightly flakey on top rather than light brown and flakey. The brownie itself was fine but just curious if you think this was because they were cooked on 160 rather than 170 in a fan oven? Going to try them again on 170 for the minimum time in the next few days to see if theres a difference. X

    • Jane's Patisserie on February 7, 2021 at 12:33 pm

      The colour can be down to the cocoa powder/chocolate/lighting in the room you are looking at them! They are meant to be darker in colour in my opinion though! And I’m not sure, usually its down to whisking and mixing for the flakey top!

    Incredible recipe. Just curious does the chocolate have a massive difference in the taste? If I spend more on maybe a milk choc lindt or galaxy does it make that much of a difference overall? Just thinking of cost of ingredients because they’re that good I’ve got a feeling I’ll be baking more often.

    • Jane's Patisserie on February 1, 2021 at 10:02 am

      For the base recipe you need to use 70% cocoa content chocolate, some brands of ‘dark’ aren’t any where close… but for the chocolate chunks/chips that you fold through you can use any you fancy!

    • Jane's Patisserie on January 31, 2021 at 11:48 am

      You can do, as long as they aren’t over baked as that will dry them out.

    I am a huge fan and love your recipes. I am baking for my hospital maternity ward to say thank you for delivering my baby so want to do 4 x this recipe. Can I bake two lots of double the recipe in a larger tray?! Or do I need to do the whole thing 4 times?

    Thanks so much

    • Jane's Patisserie on January 20, 2021 at 12:44 pm

      Personally I would do it all four times as bigger trays can lead to inconsistency in baking (and also it really depends on the size of the larger tray!)



    • Yasmin on February 11, 2021 at 7:45 pm

      I’ve baked these a few times Jane and always had rave reviews (I’ve baked them for others mostly) the texture is incredible and the recipe is so easy to follow. Would it affect the bake/texture if I wanted to make them a tiny bit less sweet (For myself) and reduced the sugar by maybe 20 or 30g?



    • Jane's Patisserie on December 16, 2020 at 8:30 am

      If it’s that small an amount then no, but I don’t think 20-30g will make much difference to the taste – if you reduce it too much it can cause a problem with the bake x

    • Jane's Patisserie on December 5, 2020 at 5:15 pm

      They are just meant to be fudgey – cakey usually means they are over baked. I tend to bake until there is a slight wobble in the middle, and then let the brownies cool fully in the tin. If you are worried you can put them in the fridge to create a lovely texture x



  146. Emma on December 3, 2020 at 10:49 pm

    • Jane's Patisserie on December 4, 2020 at 8:37 am

      You risk the middle of the brownie not baking particularly well as the brownies will be deeper, but it may work – it might need a bit longer though!

    I e made these Brownies a few times now and I’d like to ask if you think baking them in a silicone baking mould (9″ sq.) would make any difference to the baking time? I’m confident the mix was accurate and the temperature was correct its just that they seem to always be underbaked even after 40mins, the middle is very wet when cut through, picking them up is a very delicate process, they are still ever so slightly warm. Do they just need to be set in the fridge?

    • Jane's Patisserie on December 2, 2020 at 7:57 pm

      I personally would just set them in the fridge overnight if you can as that normally works perfectly – and assumably the silicone mould should be fine as it’s the same size, but they do conduct heat differently! x



  148. Emma on November 30, 2020 at 9:24 pm

    Hi Jane,

  149. WA on November 28, 2020 at 7:57 pm

    The medium eggs weigh around 60g each so Should I use 3 or 4?

    • Jane's Patisserie on November 29, 2020 at 3:29 pm

      I would use 4 – medium is 53-63, and large is 63-73, and I tend to use four medium or three large! x



  150. Sairah on November 25, 2020 at 3:05 pm

    Tried these today, used an electric whisk for 3 mins for the eggs and sugar and folded everything in gently. However, the mixture seemed quite stodgy so it took some time getting into the tin. Once baked, it didn’t have the thin paper layer like yours did in the pictures and it lacked height, where did I go wrong? X

    • Sairah on November 25, 2020 at 11:07 pm

      Just to add, the brownie was quite wet too, making it difficult to handle as it just broke apart when you hold it



    • Jane's Patisserie on November 27, 2020 at 11:30 am

      The mixture is meant to be thick so that’s a good thing – but the paper thin layer being missing isn’t a problem at all! It may have just needed a bit longer baking if the brownies were too gooey. x

    I love all your recipes but struggled with this one – I thought I followed the recipe exactly but I must have done something wrong. They have been baking for 50 mins and the middle is still moving when I give them a shake!

    A couple of questions before I give them another go- I used my KitchenAid for the first whisk. When I did the folding, I used a spatula- could this be where I went wrong? What implement should I have used for folding?

    The only other thing is I set the oven to 160c because I have a fan oven – next time should I go 170c or did it go wrong in the mixing?

    Thanks so much- love your blog so much!!

    • Jane's Patisserie on November 8, 2020 at 10:37 am

      What chocolate did you use? And what cocoa content was it? – the whisk is correct, and folding with a spatula is also correct. Sometimes it can be the chocolate, sometimes it can be not whisked enough in the beginning, and sometimes its the oven. Brownies should have an ever so slight wobble when they come as they will cool and set, but it shouldn’t be raw mix x



    • Sian on November 8, 2020 at 7:22 pm

      Hi Jane
      When I melted the chocolate with the butter I used Lidl Dark chocolate and it was 75%. Maybe it was too cheap or too low in cocoa?

      I whisked the eggs and sugar in my kitchen aid until it was double in size and pale- it took around 5-6 mins. I then poured the cooled chocolate mix in there and folded it very carefully to not knock air out. That took a while… (my arm was hurting!)

      When I took them out of the oven, there was a slight wobble but when I went to eat them they tasted cakey not like brownies and didn’t have that cracked brownie top, like in your pictures above. I presume because they’d been in the oven too long?

      Thanks so much for your help! I will definitely give them another go until I get there !

      I’ve baked brownies 4 times now and every time they’re not baked in the middle I’ve tried baking it longer but it gets beyond 5 mins and it’s still the same. It’s so frustrating and puts me off trying again.

    If I were to add nuts to this recipe, would any of other ingredients need adjusting or can I just add them in as an extra? Thank you x

    • Jane's Patisserie on November 3, 2020 at 2:29 pm

      I would reduce the chocolate chips to maybe 200g, and add up to 150g nuts x

    Just another quick question!
    In your recipes that you upload, what quantity of bakes do you make? For example serves 12, 16 etc.
    And will reducing the amount of the recipe affect the size/height in a 9″ tin? Xx

    • Jane's Patisserie on October 24, 2020 at 12:51 pm

      I’m not sure I understand sorry? Do you mean how many does the recipe serve? – how many it serves is up to you, but the servings are listed on the recipe card for what I do. And changing the recipe in any way can affect how it bakes! x

    Would a 20cm square tin be okay to use? X

    • Jane's Patisserie on October 22, 2020 at 3:08 pm

      Ideally you would use the 9″ square, as the volume of the 8″ is smaller so can make it take longer to bake/be too gooey in the middle! x

    Tried this last week and oh my goodness they went down a treat! They barely lasted a day in our house! I want to perfect it though, I was wondering which attachment on stand mixer would you recommend for this? Do you use the whisk attachment or beater for best results? Thank you

    • Jane's Patisserie on October 22, 2020 at 3:10 pm

      You whisk the eggs/sugar, and then you use your arm and a spatula to fold the rest, you don’t use an electric mixer for that bit!



  164. Ziva on October 20, 2020 at 10:30 am

    Hi Jane!

    How many grams (approx.) is a serving of brownie?

    • Jane's Patisserie on October 21, 2020 at 11:32 am

      Add the weights up, and divide by how many you want to cut them into for an estimate. x

    Hi. Done this recipe before and love it. Looking at doing a few of your different bakes today.
    Can you use the stork spread for baking in your recipes instead of the block as that’s what I have in? Or do I need the blocks. Thanks xx

    • Jane's Patisserie on October 9, 2020 at 10:15 am

      Hey!! For something such as brownies, you can use a baking spread like stork! X



  168. Cami on October 3, 2020 at 11:21 pm

    Hi, I tried this but when I put the mixture into the tin, it formed air bubbles on the top layer when it was done baking, did I overwhisk the eggs? Is that even possible haha x

    • Jane's Patisserie on October 4, 2020 at 9:56 am

      It can be possible yes – typically that is the reason it happens, but it shouldn’t be a problem x

    How long would I need to whisk if using an electric hand whisk?

    • Jane's Patisserie on October 3, 2020 at 8:22 pm

      Until the mixture trails for a couple of seconds, is lighter and doubled in size x



  171. Nina on October 2, 2020 at 9:03 am

    Hi Jane. Love this recipe! If I was using a 9×13 inch tin, what ratio would you suggest please?

  172. Lucy on September 30, 2020 at 5:36 pm

    Hi Jane
    Any idea why my chocolate chips sink to the bottom and burn? Never turn out lovely and melted like in your photos! I use the callebaut chips

    • Jane's Patisserie on October 1, 2020 at 9:10 am

      That usually happens if the mixture is too thin – mine don’t sink as my brownie mixture is really thick. What is yours like? x



  173. Tara on September 25, 2020 at 7:19 pm

    I followed the method exactly and carefully folded in the ingredients but they turned out half the height of yours, why might that be?

    • Jane's Patisserie on September 26, 2020 at 8:08 am

      This can be a few things – using a different tin, mixing it differently, using an incorrect ingredient (but I would also say they may not be that different it could just be the angle of the photo)



  174. Ellie on September 21, 2020 at 1:13 pm

    How can you tell if the mixture is too runny before putting it in the oven and how to prevent this?

    • Jane's Patisserie on September 22, 2020 at 9:12 am

      That’s really hard to say – it’s worth maybe watching my YouTube videos to see the differences? x

    Hi Jane, firstly this is my all time favourite brownie recipe and it never fails!!! Do you think it would work at all if it was purely white chocolate based, i.e. melting white chocolate with the butter, extra flour instead if cocoa powder and white chocolate chunks instead? I love your blondie recipes but just wondered if this would yield as good results!

    • Jane's Patisserie on September 22, 2020 at 9:14 am

      Hey! No it doesn’t work the same unfortunately – you need to look at blondie recipes! x



  176. Marian Day on September 19, 2020 at 5:34 pm

    Did you use the 54.5% or 70% Callebaut? Thank you.

    • Jane's Patisserie on September 19, 2020 at 7:25 pm

      70% or darker – I don’t often using anything lower as the cocoa content is important xx



  177. Riley on September 18, 2020 at 2:32 am

    Can I use half dark brown sugar and half caterer sugar?

    • Jane's Patisserie on September 16, 2020 at 7:12 pm

      I would increase by a quarter, using medium eggs will make this easier… so in total you would use 5 eggs if that makes sense! xx

    These brownies are the best ever. I was wondering if I wanted to add different chocolates, biscuits etc into this recipe, would it work? I’m literally going through all your recipes and everyone been getting fit during lockdown while I’m getting huge but I can’t resist, everything always so spot on. Thanks x

    • Jane's Patisserie on September 14, 2020 at 1:31 pm

      Some need different preparation such as freezing, some people find biscuits go soft (although I don’t mind about that) so it’s up to you! I have many general brownie recipes to give you a guide! xx



  180. Sharon on September 7, 2020 at 4:34 pm

    Hi Jane
    I’m going to attempt this recipe. I have bought a brownie pan with individual sections, would I bake this for the same amount of time as they are in effect very small individual portions?

    • Jane's Patisserie on September 8, 2020 at 1:36 pm

      It can make the timings vary as it’s not one large piece. I am unsure of exact timings however, as I never use those tins.



  181. Sophie Alice on September 5, 2020 at 8:19 am

    How do you know when there cooked then?? What’s best way of telling? Also how do you know when you have whisked enough ?.

  182. Yvonne on August 30, 2020 at 11:46 am

    Hi Jane, I’m about to make these but the recipe says use a 9×9 tray but I’ve only got an 8×8 tray. Do I adjust the baking time? If so, how much longer do I bake it for?

    • Jane's Patisserie on August 30, 2020 at 3:56 pm

      The baking time will definitely increase as the tin is 1/5 smaller roughly in volume – total time though I am unsure, as you should really use a 9×9″ x



  183. Jamie Higgs on August 28, 2020 at 12:12 pm

Just baked this in a triple layer cake form for our daughter’s 17th birthday, just baked for a little longer covered over towards the end and filled with 3 lots of different chocolate ganache between the layers although only a small slice could be consumed as it was obviously so rich!!! Thanks again for the recipe, everyone enjoyed it x

    • Jane's Patisserie on July 16, 2020 at 10:22 am

      Once they are out there isn’t much you can do – they can firm up in the fridge to help cutting them up, but they won’t get any better unfortunately! Gooey brownie is delicious though!

    Hi jane,
    When i first tried ur recipe i loved it(using a local dark chocolate for the base) then to make it even better i used callebaut block with 70% cocoa & callets as stated in ur recipe but my brownies turned out too dry & bitter, can u please suggest why that happened?

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 18, 2020 at 7:17 pm

      Hey! Dry brownies just means you have over baked them, that’s not to do with the chocolate – and bitterness can also come from over baking!



    • Tania on June 18, 2020 at 9:28 pm

      Thankyou so much for ur reply, i was just wondering if i want my brownies to taste a lil less bitter can i reduce the amount of chocolate in the base? Or should i use a different percentage altogether (currently using 70% callebaut)



    • Jane's Patisserie on June 19, 2020 at 7:40 pm

      You could try a different percentage, but that can effect the bake sometimes!

    Love your recipes! They always go down a storm whenever I make them. I was wondering however, would it make a difference to the mixture if I added the eggs/sugar to the melted chocolate/butter instead of vice versa. As I mix my eggs/sugar in a metal mixer bowl & always find the choc always sticks to the edges making it harder for me combine all ingredients when folding?x

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 16, 2020 at 10:25 am

      Hiya – I personally would recommend adding the chocolate/butter to the eggs as it’s listed. Pouring the eggs out can deflate the mixture quite a lot. I use a metal bowl, and a spatula, and it doesn’t stick to the sides. x



  213. Laura on June 15, 2020 at 5:55 pm

    Jane do you always use 70% chocolate for your brownies? Can you use 54% too? Thanks

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 15, 2020 at 8:46 pm

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 12, 2020 at 11:21 am

      So it sounds like you are overmixing – you don’t want to use the electric mixer for the flour/cocoa powder/chocolate part! You need to carefully fold it in!

  223. Rob on June 1, 2020 at 7:54 pm

    Hi, Will reducing the amount of chocolate chunks mean anything else needs to change? I was planning on using a total of 200g chunks instead of 300g as I don’t want it too full of chunks – would that be ok? Thank you.

    I’m going to add a white chocolate topping and some chocolate jazzies.
    There for my partners work colleagues who work for the NHS. My little way of saying thank you.

    Hi Jane, I don’t have a 9inch square tin I only have an 8inch one. I have scaled it down using the cake-ometer app but it now says to use 2.2 eggs. Can I just use 2 or does it have to be somehow be this precise to a 0.2 of an egg?
    Thank you in advance!

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 26, 2020 at 8:57 am

      Hey! I would just use the two!



    • Louise Fallows on June 19, 2020 at 7:17 pm

  231. Becca on May 25, 2020 at 7:46 pm

    I’ve made these before from your recipe & they’re absolutely amazing so want to make them again. However I’ve currently only got medium eggs. Will these work or do they have to be large? Xx

    Love the recipes for the brownies! I’ve tried a few of the brownie recipes now with lots of great feedback!
    I used green and black for the chocolate (chunks) this time, do you think it would work will with Lindt too, say the bars that are slightly gooey inside or would this effect the brownie cooking?

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 22, 2020 at 7:53 pm

      Ahh yay! Sometimes that can affect the baking time – but maybe freeze them first? x

    Thanks in advance!

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 21, 2020 at 4:13 pm

      Hey! So you can use this recipe – A 8″ circle tin, is about 2/3 of the size of this tin – so you could just split the mixture as it is between two tins and they’ll be a bit thinner, or increase it somewhat! I will be publishing a brownie cake recipe soon (but not in time for the birthday!)

      Yes you can definitely chop up bars of chocolate!



  238. Katrina Budesha on May 15, 2020 at 10:48 pm

    Hiya I don’t have Choc chips can I use normal milk dark and white choc bars and chop them?

  239. Lauren on May 15, 2020 at 9:28 am

    Hi Jane.. for these brownies is it okay to use dark cooking choc under 70%?? I found some in Lidl and bought but just realised it’s around 55%. Thankyou xx

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 15, 2020 at 9:29 am

      I personally only recommend 70% or darker, as the higher the cocoa content the better they bake – you can definitely use it if it’s all you have, but often it makes the mix runnier, and take longer to bake and so on! x

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 13, 2020 at 2:18 pm

      Ahh yay! Sometimes that can just happen with cakes/traybakes and so on! It’s very hard to have it perfect all the way through in my opinion – especially with some ovens that don’t circulate heat very well! You could try a different tin size maybe, but that can also make things go a little strange haha!

    Can these be made without the chocolate chips? I just want to make plain brownies as I’ll be putting caramel on top once baked.

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 10, 2020 at 9:13 am

      You can use 50g more flour in place, but obviously the flavour will be different and maybe the texture slightly!

    I made these the other day and they were fab. However, I think I overmixed the eggs and sugar as the brownie came out just under 2 inches in height and the texture was more like one of those melt in the middle choc puddings. Any advice on how long I should mix with an electric hand mixer would be great!

      I wasn’t sure texturally how the aeration method would, but they’re the perfect balance bwtween slightly cakey, but nice and gooey!

      I couldn’t get my hands on any decent quality white chocolate, so had to settle for milky bar… Will definitely use a better quality white choc next time, it just wasn’t up to the job!

      Brilliant recipe though Jane!

    Mine tastes like a cake rather than a brownie. What did I do wrong?

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 5, 2020 at 10:28 pm

      Did you use plain flour or substitute for self raising? If not, sounds over baked is all!



  258. Kacy on May 5, 2020 at 10:09 am

    Hey,

    I’ve had this recipe saved for ages and I’m itching to make them today, however I can only find self raising flour. Would that work or would I need to alter the ingredients in any way?

    Thanks x

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 5, 2020 at 12:42 pm

      Hey! So ideally you really do need to use plain flour – for the best brownie. There aren’t any changes you can make in regards to self raising unfortunately – you can use it, but it may cause them to rise and then fall after baking, and also have a smidge more of a cakey texture!

    Hi Jane, I was going to make these Brownies again as they went down so well before but unfortunately still couldn’t get any regular plain flour, I managed to get the Doves Farm plain flour (free from) that I think you’ve used in other recipes. Would this work the same and would I need to alter anything like the amount of flour? Thanks!

    • Jane's Patisserie on May 4, 2020 at 7:26 pm

      It’s definitely a struggle for ingredients right now isn’t it! I would say it’s definitely worth a go, but they may be more squidgy! X



    • Kimberly Tinker on May 15, 2020 at 10:23 am

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 15, 2020 at 5:18 pm

    Easily the best brownies I’ve ever had! I’m far from a baker but decided to give brownies a go. I searched for ages before I found this recipe and I’m so glad I did. This recipe is so easy to follow and my family was shocked that they were made by me (as I say, I’m really not a baker!). They’re perfectly gooey in the middle with a crispy top, and they’re delightful an hour after baking (when the chocolate chunks are lovely and melted) or the day after. Even the next day, the inside is still gooey and the chocolate chunks add something really special.

    I’ve never actually written a review for anything like this before, but I felt like I had to do the recipe justice. Seriously, I’m amazed!

    Genuinely, I’d never bake with another recipe and I’ll be recommending this to everyone! Thanks SO much x

    Hi Jane, this is really random but I’ve got a large box full of assorted dark chocolate Lindor truffles (which have all been left over as no one likes them) and would I be able to use them as an alternative to a bar of dark chocolate in a bake and will it still be the same if I just melt them in the microwave for say brownies? Xxx

    • Jane's Patisserie on April 18, 2020 at 4:14 pm

      I wouldn’t use them as the base chocolate for a brownie, as they are a truffle so it’s not just chocolate so it could really change the bake – it would be best to add them into the brownie mix afterwards like you would chocolate chips!



    • Sienna on April 18, 2020 at 10:11 pm

    • Jane's Patisserie on April 18, 2020 at 11:09 am

      You really should use all dark chocolate for the batter to get the perfect brownie as I’ve explained in the post – but you can use the milk, but it may take longer to bake.

    • Jane's Patisserie on April 14, 2020 at 9:11 am

      It depends on if you mean square or circle – if it’s a square, it’s about 1/5 smaller – so you probably would want to reduce the recipe otherwise it may struggle to bake, but you can give it a go! If you’re talking about a circle, it would be 2/3 of the recipe!

    Just baked these today for Valentine’s Day & they are divine!
    All of the brownies out here in Melbourne have been really disappointing until I tried these!

    Hi I made these with my mum and they were great. A friend of ours recommended the recipe so we thought we would have ago. We used slightly weaker dark chocolate (around 65%) and chocolate orange instead of the three chocolates. It was really delicious and I recommend playing around with it.

  289. Amy on January 21, 2020 at 1:29 pm

    I’ve made these a few times now and they’re always a HUGE hit. One person said they’re better than finch bakery brownies and if you know who that is then you’ll know that’s a big deal!!

    Credit all goes to the recipe of course, love it and won’t use any other brownie recipe now.

      That is DEFINITELY an amazing complement! Yay!!

    I have just made these, followed the recipe and directions step by step. The brownies came out looking amazing!! But all I can taste is the dark chocolate, leaving a slight bitter taste? What have I done wrong?😂

    • Jane's Patisserie on November 5, 2019 at 6:00 pm

      They are designed to be rich and gooey, which requires dark chocolate in the brownie batter. I’d be very surprised if this was causing a bitter taste however where it’s mixed into the sugar and so on – maybe it’s the chocolate chips?



    • Jessica on November 6, 2019 at 11:17 am

      Scrap what I said! They were a hit with everyone! Must just be a bit too rich for my taste! X



  294. Jemma Dwyer on October 30, 2019 at 5:25 pm

    Can you confirm the shelf life for the brownies – how long they keep for?
    Thanks

    • Jane's Patisserie on October 30, 2019 at 7:06 pm

      A week – as mentioned on the recipe!

    Wanting to use my rectangle tin which is 30cm x 18cm would the cooking time be roughly the same? Thank you x

    • Jane's Patisserie on September 17, 2019 at 7:57 am

      I believe that volume wise they are the same, or very similar, so it should be about the same time!

    Made these a few times and they have always been delicious!
    I was just wondering if you can freeze them once cooked? I want to make them for our coffee morning at work next Friday but won’t have time during the week, it’d be much easier if I could bake in advance this weekend. If not, are there any other freezable recipe you could recommend? Thanks in advance!

    • Jane's Patisserie on September 16, 2019 at 7:02 pm

      Hey! Ahh yay!! Yes, you can freeze them!

    Just made this for the third time, as they have turned perfectly when I’ve made them previously.
    Well I couldn’t work out why this time the top looked cooked but the middle wasn’t.
    The problem – flour and cocoa, or rather lack of. Yep I’d totally forgotten to add flour and cocoa!
    What a rookie error!

  298. Chloe on August 31, 2019 at 3:34 pm

    Hi, I tried to make these brownies and even with 40 minutes in the oven they were virtually molten – I followed the recipe to a T so I’m not sure where this went wrong – any advice?

    • Jane's Patisserie on August 31, 2019 at 6:10 pm

      Hey! For them to still be so under done at 40 minutes, you will have to have done something incorrectly. It could be using the wrong ingredient, or not doing the method correctly. Often, it’s because the egg/sugar isn’t whisked up thick enough, and then not folded gently enough. Also, your often may not be the right temp (As often or not, ovens aren’t the temp you think they are.)

      These brownies are amazing! And the recipie is so clear and easy to follow. I used to use the nigella recipie but there was always something not quite right. Thanks so much Jane x



  299. Nicole Williams on August 26, 2019 at 5:07 am

    When you say 200g dark chocolate, does it need to be cooking chocolate?

    • Jane's Patisserie on August 26, 2019 at 8:33 am

      Any dark chocolate that is 70% or higher… ideally 80% or more though. I use either cooking chocolate, or supermarket own confectionary chocolate.



  300. Anonymous on July 1, 2019 at 1:03 pm

    After many failed attempts I’ve finally found a brownies recipe that works and with the crackly top! Thank you so much for sharing 😉 so deliciously chocolatey

    Is it okay to use self-raising instead of plain flour? what difference would it make? 😀

    • Jane's Patisserie on June 15, 2019 at 12:24 pm

      I really would advise using plain as would don’t want the raising agent!



  302. Hayley Saxton on April 12, 2019 at 7:26 am

    I am going to make brownies this weekend but with an easter twist, im going to top with chocolate cornflake cake mix. Will these be sturdy enough to hold that density on top do you think if i cook them a little longer or are they too gooey?
    Thank you 😊

    • Jane's Patisserie on April 12, 2019 at 10:20 am

      I think it could potentially work, but it will always be hard to cut as the cornflake cake mix is always going to be more solid than a brownie x



  303. Missy on April 9, 2019 at 12:45 am

    Hi, these look soo good! I was wondering what would happen if I use a semi sweet chocolate with 51% cocoa instead of dark chocolate and just put less sugar? How much mess sugar do you reckon I would need?

    • Jane's Patisserie on April 9, 2019 at 1:51 pm

      I wouldn’t advise messing with the recipe, to be honest… the darker the better for the baking, I use 70% minimum. And the sugar is used to make the mousse, so you need the full amount.



  304. Anonymous on April 2, 2019 at 8:34 pm

    Is it possible to overmix the egg and sugar?

    • Jane's Patisserie on April 2, 2019 at 9:03 pm

      I would say it’s quite hard… eventually it will always be possible. I leave my whisking and quite a high speed for a good few minutes and its fine!

    Just made these , they tasted amazing !! Was a bit unsure if I cooked them properly though because the middle and bottom of the brownie was wet/oily looking , they were in my over for 40 mins though .

    • Jane's Patisserie on March 16, 2019 at 7:41 am

      It might just be that it was a little thin when it went in, so it took a little longer!

    Another perfect, easy to follow recipe! Didn’t have a big enough tray but split it into two smaller ones and they came out fab! Love that the measurements for the chocolate are a round number, easy to buy without having random chunks leftover! (Hate dark chocolate so leftovers just get thrown away).
    The only problem I have with your blog, is having to decide which of your fab recipes to try next!

  307. Juliette on February 18, 2019 at 5:41 pm

    Hi Jane !
    This recipe looks absolutely exquisite!! I was just wondering, if I keep the brownies for a few day and heat them up when I want to have some (cause I love it warm with a cup of milk) will the chocolate chunks still be gooey and chewy ?

    Thank you!
    Cheers, Juliette

    • Jane's Patisserie on February 19, 2019 at 9:04 am

      If the brownies were warmed again, the chocolate chunks will be gooey again!

    I made these for the first time yesterday along with the Nutella and Ferrero Rocher cheesecake and omggggggggg they’re both absolutely devine!!! I’m not a baker, I’ve only ever made shortbread biscuits (easiest thing ever) , but I have 2 young daughters and thought I should start learning. I follow you on Insta and you made me realise how straight forward it was to make it all from scratch instead of getting shop bought. I’m immensely proud of myself and your recipes are just beautiful, thank you! X

    I need to make 2 lots of these brownies, can I double up on ingredients or would I need to make 2 separate batches? x

    • Jane's Patisserie on January 30, 2019 at 4:23 pm

      It depends – personally I would whip up two batches to make sure I get them right, but if you’re confident then go for it. Just make sure the eggs/sugar mix is really VERY thick and moussey before carrying on, and be as gentle as possible when folding everything together. x



  310. Mustafa Al-liabi on January 21, 2019 at 3:33 pm

    Hi, can these be turned into protein brownies?? If so what do i substitute?

    • Jane's Patisserie on January 21, 2019 at 3:33 pm

      I’m afraid I have no idea as I don’t bake with protein.

    Hi Jane, these look delicious! I want to make this recipe into a brownie pizza… am I right I’m thinking I would just need to go up a tin size, so to a 10” round tin and then I can keep the quantity the same?

    Would it be able to make these gluten free?
    Please could you tell me what I would need to do instead to make them gluten free brownies?
    Thanks!

    • Jane's Patisserie on December 15, 2018 at 9:18 am

      You can substitute the regular flour for a GF version (I recommend doves farm) and then add in another 35g on top.



  314. Ariel on October 26, 2018 at 5:28 pm

    Can I use regular white sugar instead of caster sugar?

    • Jane's Patisserie on October 26, 2018 at 7:52 pm

      Do you mean granulated sugar? I wouldn’t advise it personally as the granules are quite a bit bigger so it won’t whip the same.



  315. Natalie on October 2, 2018 at 11:02 am

    Do you think you could add chopped walnuts to this recipe?

  316. Sarah on September 11, 2018 at 8:15 am

    Hi Jane. I adore your recipes and can’t wait to try these! Do you know if they are freezable?

  317. loka on August 23, 2018 at 11:45 pm

    can i use salted butter instead?

    • Jane's Patisserie on August 24, 2018 at 9:14 am

      You can, but it’ll make them saltier.

    • Jane's Patisserie on August 18, 2018 at 9:29 am

      It depends on what would you prefer to use instead of the butter? Because butter is vitally important. And yes, you can leave the white chocolate out, but I would still say they’re regular chocolate brownies with the white chocolate haha! x
