I’m going to be out of town this week/weekend and wanted to make sure I got my post to you early, as I won’t be accessible later in the week. I am submitting a recipe this month that previously appeared on my blog in June. https://chocolatewithgrace.com/fudgy-cocoa-brownies/ It’s a favorite of mine!

Hi! It’s Mallory again from Chocolate With Grace and I’m thrilled to share another recipe with you this month. I’m thrilled that the weather has cooled off and my baking passion has returned full force.

Fudgy Cocoa Brownies. Everyone wants a thick, fudgy, chewy brownie. These box-mix style brownies are simple to make requiring only cocoa.

Everyone wants a box-mix style brownie, with their thick chewy texture and rich chocolate taste. Let’s face it. The texture is hard to duplicate from scratch at home. However, I have found a magic secret ingredient that will give these brownies the characteristic chewiness everyone desires. A simple tablespoon and a half of corn syrup will do the trick. I know, I know, corn syrup is the bane of a healthy diet, but who says brownies are healthy anyway. My theory is, if you’re going to splurge, you might as well have the best brownie you can possibly have. You can have a kale salad the next day to make up for it.Fudgy Cocoa Brownies.

The recipe is simple, both the ingredients and the technique. As I researched brownie recipes and techniques, I preferred to find a recipe that only uses cocoa and not a combination of cocoa and chocolate in a bar form. Most of the time the only form of chocolate that I have on hand is cocoa, and I don’t want to have to run to the grocery store to get bittersweet chocolate before I make brownies every time. I want a go-to recipe I can make in a pinch. The recipe presented below is a combination of several recipes and techniques I researched and tested. In addition to the magical corn syrup, the recipe also includes a bit of brown sugar which helps the texture and brings a richer taste to the chocolate making them my favorite brownie ever. What are your must have characteristics for brownies?
