this recipe

These are the perfect Crinkle Top Fudge Brownies that you dream about when the chocolate cravings strike! Soft, fudgy, and super chocolatey; these brownies are so quick and easy that you won’t think twice about making them!

Tips to make the best brownies

When adding the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder, gently fold them into the mixture until just combined. Avoid over mixing the batter or your brownies will become dense and hard while baking.

For the softest brownies, make sure to watch the brownies while baking. You want to remove them from the oven after the top is just set.

How do you get the crinkle tops on brownies?

Whisking room temperature eggs for a full minute allows the air bubbles to rise to the top and get trapped under the top crust of the brownies, forming the beautiful crinkle crust.

If you forgot to bring your eggs to room temperature, here’s a little hack for you: Before cracking your eggs, take a large bowl of warm water and gently set the eggs in it for about five minutes.

How do you get brownies to have a shiny crust?

Combining the sugar, melted butter, and chocolate that is still warm will create a reaction when the sugar is warming up during the baking process to create a shiny crust on top of the brownies.

Supplies

• Measuring cups, spoons, and measuring scale

Instructions on How to Make These Crinkle Top Fudge Brownies

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prep your 9×13 baking dish with parchment paper and spray pan and parchment paper with nonstick cooking spray.

In a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt 1-1/2 cups chocolate chips for 30-second increments in the microwave, making sure to stir in between, until completely melted and smooth.

While the chocolate is melting, you can add sugar, vanilla and the coffee granules to a large bowl. Add the melted chocolate, and combine.

Melt the butter in the microwave, just like you did with the chocolate. Then, combine the melted butter with the mixture.

In a small bowl, whisk the eggs for a full minute. Stir the eggs into the mixture.

Finally, add in the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder. Fold together until just combined and there is no remaining flour in the batter.

Gently fold in the last 1/2 cup of chocolate chips, and spread into an even layer on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the brownies are just set.
