• 1 1/4 cups of white sugar ( 9 ounces/ 260 grams)

• 1 cup of unsalted butter, melted and cooled ( 8 ounces/ 240 grams)
• 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil (30 ml)
• 4 large eggs at room temperature ( 2 ounces/ 57 grams each)
• 1 tablespoon of pure vanilla extract (15ml)
• 3/4 teaspoon of salt

Instruction:

1. Preheat the oven – Here is the first step of the homemade brownie recipe. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F or 175 degrees C and line a metal 9×9 baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
2. Combine butter and sugar – Mix the cool melted butter and oil with white and brown sugars in a medium-sized bowl. Then whisk it well to combine the mixture. Then add vanilla and eggs and beat for another minute.
3. Add the rest ingredients – Add unsweetened cocoa powder, flour, and salt in the mixture. Mix all the dry ingredients gently into the wet mixture and fold it together. Make sure that you do not overbeat the batter or air pockets will be created in it which will not give you the proper texture.
4. Add chocolates – Add the roughly chopped chocolates or choco chips and mix them together into the batter.
5. Pour the batter – Pour the batter in the pan prepared using a spatula and smooth it out evenly. Make sure you make it smooth to the edges. Top it with the desired amount of choco chips on it.
6. (Optional, if you want brownies to be crackle-topped) – Place the batter with the pan in the refrigerator for around 30 minutes. This step can be skipped if you do not want a crackle-topped brownie.
7. Bake – Remove the brownie batter from the refrigerator and place it in the oven. Bake at 350 degrees F or 177 degrees C for 30 to 35 minutes or until the center of the brownies no longer jiggles. You can check that by inserting a toothpick in the middle. Do not over bake them more than the mentioned time duration if you are trying to make fudgy brownies. After that, your brownies will be set and firm.
8. Unmould – The last step of this homemade brownie recipe. Carefully remove the brownie from the pan after 15-20 minutes. Allow them to come at the room temperature and then cut them into slices accordingly. And your best chocolate brownie recipe is ready to be served. You can even top your brownies with peanut butter chips, shredded coconut, dried cranberries, raisins, crushed walnuts, peanuts, and almonds to make them more tempting.
