💡 Pro Tips

  • Bake brownies at 325°F instead of 350°F for 28-32 minutes to prevent the edges from overcooking while the center sets, as chocolate burns at 350°F and creates bitter compounds.timing325°F for 28-32 minutes
  • Line your 9x9 pan with parchment paper extending 2 inches over the sides - this creates handles for easy removal and prevents the brownies from sticking to corners where metal conducts heat fastest.equipment2-inch overhang
  • Don't overmix once you add the dry ingredients - stop mixing as soon as no dry flour streaks remain because gluten development creates tough, cakey brownies instead of fudgy ones.technique
  • Test doneness with a toothpick inserted 2 inches from the edge rather than the center - it should come out with a few moist crumbs, as the center will continue cooking from residual heat.technique2 inches from edge
  • Cool completely for at least 2 hours before cutting to allow the structure to set - warm brownies will crumble because the fats haven't solidified enough to hold the crumb together.timing2 hours minimum
