Tips:

  • Use dark chocolate. The darker the chocolate, the richer the flavor of the brownies will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the brownies tough.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Overbaking will make the brownies dry.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to set and will prevent them from falling apart.
  • Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
