How To Make Chocolate Chunk Brownies
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line an 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
- Place butter into a large mixing bowl and microwave until melted and hot, about 45 seconds or so. Pour in chocolate chips and stir until mostly melted. It’s ok, if it’s not perfectly smooth. You might have to put back in microwave for another 30 seconds to help melting. Add flour, salt and sugars. Mix a few times then add eggs and yolk and oil. Mix until well combined then add chocolate chunks.
- Transfer batter to prepared baking dish, spreading evenly. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until cooked through.
Tips For The Best Brownies Ever
- Choose the right pan. Be sure to use the pan specified in the recipe you choose. Going with a pan that’s too small can sometimes make center of the brownies uncooked or undercooked, while choosing one that’s too large can lead to the batter spreading out too much and the brownies being too thin and dry.
- Don’t over mix your brownie batter. You want all of the brownie ingredients combined to make a smooth batter, but be careful not to overmix them. Doing so can result in tough, overworked brownies. One way to avoid this is to let the unbaked batter rest in the pan for several hours or overnight in the refrigerator, which gives it time to “relax” before being baked. The next day, bake as instructed.
- Store them properly. Once your brownies have cooled down to room temperature, cover the pan tightly in aluminum foil or transfer the brownies to a sealed container. Alternatively, brownies can be frozen but that may affect their texture. To avoid this problem with freezing, wrap each cut brownie in plastic wrap, then aluminum foil before placing them all together in an airtight freezer bag.

I also had to bake these for much longer than the suggested time but they were delicious. I put some sea salt on top when they came out of the oven and a little espresso powder in with the other ingredients.
Just made this… very easy!! My colleagues are going to enjoy, I’m sure!!
These are very yummy, however, I found the cooking time to be way off. I usually undercook my brownies, as I prefer them to be gooey rather than dry and overcooked. So, I set my timer to 33 minutes just to check on them. After putting them back in the oven multiple times, I probably ended up cooking these for a total of over an hour. I will definitely make these again, since they were very good, but I will bake in a larger dish next time to avoid the longer cooking time. Thanks for sharing the delicious recipe!
Pls let me know 1 stick – 8 tbsp = how many grams – our country use gm for measuring butter. Tks

You had me at “brownies” and “one bowl” !!! I’ll have to try this recipe out!!!
These brownies look absolutely delicious! I know you use semi sweet chocolate chips to stir into the butter, but what type of chocolate do you use for the chunks? Milk chocolate, semi-sweet or dark? 🙂
Hi Dawn I used milk chocolate chunks, however semi sweet would be just fine too 🙂 Hope you enjoy!
Thank you so much! I will be making these tomorrow!!! ❤❤
