Description

These Chocolate Fudge Brownies with Walnuts offer a rich, chocolaty indulgence with a fudgy texture and a delightful crunch from chopped walnuts. Perfectly moist and easy to make, they’re an ideal treat for any chocolate lover craving a classic homemade dessert.

Ingredients

Brownie Batter

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder

Add-ins

  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Melt butter and mix wet ingredients: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from heat and immediately stir in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Add dry ingredients: Sift together the cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Gradually add these to the butter mixture, stirring gently just until combined to maintain a fudgy texture.
  4. Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts: Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped walnuts to evenly distribute throughout the batter.
  5. Pour batter and bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs but not wet batter.
  6. Cool and serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing into 9 squares. Enjoy your rich, fudgy brownies!

Notes

  • For extra gooey brownies, reduce baking time by 2 minutes.
  • Walnuts can be swapped with pecans or omitted entirely for a nut-free version.
  • Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days to maintain freshness.
