One Bowl Brownies, made from scratch, deep rich chocolate flavor in a fudgy brownie.
I believe things happen for a reason. The alarm doesn’t go off on time because the kids really want me to drive them to school and pick up breakfast on the way. I forget to pick up toilet paper at the store and then it turns out when I go back the next day, there’s a sale. It decides to rain all day so I’ll stay inside and clean the house!
So I knew it was fate when I found 5, FIVE boxes of Unsweetened Bakers Chocolate in the back of my baking cabinet. I don’t even remember buying them. It must have been a good sale or something. I was in the mood for Brownies. On the back of the box was a recipe for One Bowl Brownies. It’s the same recipe I’ve used for years!
These brownies were meant to happen. These may be my favorite brownie. A rich deep chocolate flavor. The fudgy center. The crisp, flaky top. And the edges, I always go for a corner. The edges are the perfect chewy, part cakey, part fudgy gooey that you want a corner to be!

Wow, these brownies really were meant to be!! I always do the same thing – stock up on food when it is on sale and then forget all about it! These brownies look perfect – so rich and fudgey!
Mary Smith says
Is there a reason why it says use a large glass bowl? Only glass?
Joan Hayes says
You can use any microwave safe bowl. I just find a glass bowl works well for melting chocolate without scorching it.

I am a sucker for brownies especially ones that are fudgy with a crackly top and crisp edges. These brownies look amazing with only one bowl to dirty up makes them just perfect!:)

Hannah says
These brownies are fantastic! I’ve always struggled finding a recipe from scratch that makes it just as fudgy as box mix. These are very fudgy and rich and far more delicious than any box or any other recipe I’ve ever tasted. Thank you for the great recipe.

I converted cups to grams, and the sugar comes out 400g (1 cup=200g). Is this right? Isnt that too much?
