Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Batter
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
Add-ins
- 1 cup chopped pistachios
- 1 cup chopped hazelnut chocolates
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to ensure the brownies do not stick during baking.
- Mix Butter and Sugar: In a spacious bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter with granulated sugar, mixing until the mixture is smooth and creamy for a rich base.
- Add Vanilla and Eggs: Stir in the vanilla extract, then add the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next to create a smooth batter.
- Whisk Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
- Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined to avoid overmixing and keep the brownies tender.
- Fold in Nuts and Chocolates: Carefully fold in the chopped pistachios and hazelnut chocolates, ensuring even distribution throughout the batter for added texture and flavor.
- Prepare to Bake: Pour the brownie batter into the greased baking dish and use a spatula to smooth the top evenly.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, indicating the perfect fudgy texture.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool in the baking dish for about 15 minutes before slicing them into squares for serving.
Notes
- For extra gooey brownies, slightly underbake and remove them when a few moist crumbs remain on the toothpick.
- Use high-quality hazelnut chocolates like Ferrero Rocher for authentic flavor.
- Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
- For a nut-free version, omit pistachios and hazelnut chocolates or substitute with chocolate chips.
