Whether you’re a seasoned baker or just starting out, these chocolate brownies are sure to impress. With only 20 minutes prep time and 5 key ingredients, these chocolate brownies are easy to whip up anytime!
Why our Ultimate Chocolate Brownie?
In our chocolate brownie recipe, we use Billington’s Light Brown Soft Unrefined Cane Sugar, and believe us when we say these make the most indulgently-rich and gooey chocolate brownies you've ever tasted. You'll never look at another brownie the same way.
How to Make Your Brownie the Most "Fudgy"
Billington’s Light Brown Soft Unrefined Cane Sugar adds more moisture than white sugar due to its molasses content, making the brownies extra gooey. Then make sure you bake until just set. Overbaking can dry out your brownies, making them less fudgy.
Once you’ve mastered this chocolate brownie recipe, you can go wild exploring new flavour combos. Try adding Caramac or Biscoff spread to add a new twist - we've shown you how to amend the recipe below.
How to make Caramac Brownies:
Caramac lovers: Break 6x 30g bars into the brownie mix right before baking. Once baked, drizzle a melted 30g bar over the top.
How to make Biscoff Brownies:
Bonkers for Biscoff? Dollop 200g Biscoff spread into the brownie mix, right before baking. Break up 5 Biscoff biscuits and place the pieces on top of the brownie batter. Bake for 20 minutes extra.

Step 5
Pour into the prepared tin and bake for 30-35 minutes, until you see a paper-like crust on top, there should still be some movement in the centre of the tin.
Step 6
If your brownie begins to brown around the edges, loosely cover with baking paper to protect it whilst it continues to bake.
Step 7
Remove from the oven. The brownie texture should still be gooey in the centre (it will firm up as the brownie cools). Leave to cool, then cut into squares.
