How To make The Most Perfect Brownies (3 Ways)

Good brownies don't come from boxes, they come from the heart. By that I mean, lots of good butter, and made completely homemade. They don't have to be super fancy. Just some butter, flour, chocolate, and you should be well on your way to the best brownies of all time.

"but are they treated with the respect and love they deserve?"

So now we're asking the REAL questions

The FUDGY brownies are my go to recipe for when I'm craving a quick bite of chocolate! Here are my tips for the fudgy bois:
1. If you're averse to cleaning bowls, I find that my brownies turn out fine if I mix the wet ingredients together first and then add the dry ingredients in one by one into the same bowl. Saves you from cleaning the separate bowl Josh uses for dry ingredients.
2. I preheat the oven AS SOON AS I decide I wanna make brownies. My next step is to get the butter into an oven safe container and place it in the oven while preheating. That melts the butter for me while I gather other ingredients.
3. Forgot to leave your eggs out at room temp beforehand? I like to place my eggs in a bowl of warm/slightly hot water after I take them out of the fridge. That brings them up to room temperature fairly quickly. Just don't cook em!
4. Don't have espresso powder? I find that using instant coffee works well as a substitute. Depending on how large the bits of freeze dried coffee are, you may want to dissolve it in a MINIMAL amount of water first. That prevents you from getting bitter little bits of instant coffee in ur brownie.
5. I personally found this recipe a lil too sweet for my taste, so I tend to decrease the amount sugar from 280g to 230g. Sometimes even more if I feel like it. They still come out tasty!
6. My batter comes out THICC. Thicker than I'm used to brownie batter being, at least. If yours comes out thiccc, that's normal. Don't worry.
7. Sometimes I skip the chocolate chunks. The brownies come out fine.
8. Make sure to let the brownies cool a lil before cutting and taking them out of the pan! Otherwise cutting is a nightmare and your brownies will be a mess.
9. A standard loaf pan is the perfect size for making a half batch. To make a half batch, I just halve all the ingredients and decrease the baking time. I use the toothpick test to tell when they're done. A half batch takes me a lil over 20 minutes to bake in a loaf pan.
Enjoy ur fudgy bois!

The best thing about these videos is that you don't take 25 minutes telling us how much brownies mean to you and how your grans aunt made them after school or whatever. Just straight up "box brownies bad. Brownies from scratch good class in session."

Respect, got a sub from me

This is a bit cheesy but I just wanted to tell you I love your content, every time I get the notification that you uploaded it makes my day and I just started watching you about a month ago. So thank you for having a great personality it truly makes me a lot happier. Keep up the great cooking videos even though I’ll probably never make one of these recipes! Haha

Hi Joshua, thanks a lot for all the three brownie recipes! Usually, my brownies taste more like a dry cake, so I am excited to try your techniques!
