1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking powder

2 tablespoons cocoa powder
¼ teaspoon salt

Sugars

100 g caster sugar

90 g demerara sugar

Add-Ins

85 g dark or milk chocolate chips

Directions

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Melt the Chocolate

In a heatproof bowl, melt the butter and dark chocolate together over a double boiler or in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.

3. Mix the Wet Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, caster sugar, demerara sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Gradually add the melted chocolate mixture, whisking to combine.

4. Combine the Dry Ingredients

In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, cocoa powder, and salt. Slowly fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.

5. Add the Chocolate Chips

Gently stir in the chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed.

6. Shape the Brookies

Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

7. Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.

8. Cool and Serve

Allow the brookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

FAQs

1. Can I use milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate?

Yes, but dark chocolate provides a richer flavor. Milk chocolate will make the brookies slightly sweeter.

2. Why are my brookies not chewy?

Ensure you don’t overbake them. They should look slightly underdone in the center when you remove them from the oven.

3. Can I double the recipe?

Yes, double the ingredients and bake in batches as needed.

4. Do I need to chill the dough?

No, this dough doesn’t require chilling.

5. Can I add other mix-ins?

Yes! Try adding peanut butter chips, toffee bits, or shredded coconut for variety.

6. Can I make these brookies vegan?

Use plant-based butter, egg substitutes, and vegan chocolate for a vegan-friendly version.

7. What’s the best way to melt chocolate?

Melt the chocolate slowly over a double boiler or in the microwave, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

8. How do I ensure evenly-sized brookies?

Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough evenly.

9. Can I use regular granulated sugar instead of caster sugar?

Yes, but the texture may differ slightly since caster sugar is finer.

10. How do I make them extra gooey?

Underbake by 1–2 minutes and let them cool slightly on the tray before transferring.
