I love chocolates. They stay as my first pick when it comes to dessert. So when the mood strikes or a celebration you will find me in the kitchen baking something chocolaty!
This weekend I am yearning for brownies. With just two of us, I couldn’t make an entire jar.
My intention now, is to make merely two brownies, one for me and one for my husband.
Double Chocolate Fudge Brownies
Do we have the key ingredients in our pantry? Let’s find out.
Double Chocolate Fudge Brownies All Ingredients
See, I have set forth all of them here on my counter.
Then I put my black pan with water on the burner and wait for it to boil. When it bubbles, I plant my steel bowl with butter over it to create a double boiler.
Melting butter in double boiler
Meanwhile, I pre-heat my oven at 400 F/200 C. Simultaneously in a small bowl whisk in the egg. Mix dry ingredients like flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt in another bowl.

Mixing the dry ingredients
As soon as the butter melts, I have to add in the sugar and whisk it. Here, in my impatience, I add sugar before the butter melts entirely. But it’s okay.
Adding sugar to the melted butter
When my sugar disappears in butter, I add vanilla extract and mix.
Adding the wet ingredients
Now I whisk in the egg 1 tbsp at a time to this butter-sugar mix.
With that accomplished, once again in my restlessness, I add the dry mixture and chocolate chips at once to the wet mix.
Adding the dry ingredients
The fun begins here. The yellow wet mix and the light brown dry mixture combine to form the darkest brown batter. This one is smooth and shiny and smells heaven. Make sure it’s lump free.
Batter
It’s time to brush the ramekins with canola oil and pour the batter in them.
Going into Oven
I place these inside the oven. The waiting period begins.
25 Minutes later
When the batter rises, a beautiful aroma of chocolate fills the entire home.
As soon as the cracks start appearing, I close the oven and take the ramekins out.
We could have left them to cool. Taken them out of ramekins after five minutes. Then eaten them.
Clearly, that’s not us! I mean who can wait that long, when such deliciousness is in front of you?
We were on these at once.
When these brownies are hot, the chocolate chips are slightly melted giving the taste of the hot chocolate sauce. Trust me when these hot and gooey chocolate chips touch your tongue, you will forget everything else for that one moment.
These brownies are soft and gooey on the inside, a little crisp on the outside, and totally delicious.
Try them and tell me if you also enjoyed the hot double chocolate brownies.
