Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2/3 cup unsalted butter
- 6 oz white chocolate (baking white chocolate, not candy melts)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
- 1 and 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
Toppings
- 1/3 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (or dark chocolate chips)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the brownies.
- Prepare Pan: Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with aluminum foil and spray it with non-stick cooking spray to ensure easy removal after baking.
- Melt Butter and White Chocolate: In a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and white chocolate together in short 20-second bursts, stirring after each until fully melted and smooth.
- Cool Mixture: Let the melted mixture cool for about 5 minutes to prevent cooking the eggs when added.
- Add Sugar and Flavoring: Whisk in the granulated sugar, vanilla extract, eggs, and salt gently until everything is well combined.
- Incorporate Flour: Carefully fold in the all-purpose flour until just mixed to maintain the batter’s light texture.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan, then bake for 20-24 minutes until the top is set, edges start to pull away, and a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan for easy handling and to finish setting.
- Remove from Pan and Cut: Lift the brownies out using the foil edges, peel back the foil, and cut into 9 or 12 squares as preferred.
- Drizzle Chocolate Toppings: In a small bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, then drizzle over the brownies. Repeat the process with the semi-sweet chocolate chips, adding a decorative chocolate drizzle layer.
Notes
- Use baking white chocolate instead of candy melts for better texture and taste.
- Allow the melted chocolate mixture to cool before adding eggs to avoid scrambling.
- Check brownies with a toothpick at the minimum baking time to avoid overbaking and ensure moistness.
- Room temperature eggs help to blend ingredients better and provide a smoother batter.
- You can substitute semi-sweet with dark chocolate chips if preferred for a richer flavor contrast.
- For easier removal, ensure foil is properly greased.
