Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons coconut oil or unsalted butter (90 grams)
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate, finely chopped (170 grams)
  • 3/4 cup white sugar or coconut palm sugar (150 grams)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons Dutch-processed cocoa powder (14 grams)
  • 3 tablespoons arrowroot powder (24 grams), or cornstarch or tapioca starch

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an 8×8-inch (20×20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper and lightly grease.
  2. Melt the chopped chocolate and coconut oil or butter in a microwave-safe bowl or saucepan over low heat. Stir until smooth.
  3. Add sugar and whisk well. Add eggs one at a time, whisking thoroughly after each addition.
  4. Sift in cocoa powder and arrowroot powder. Whisk until batter is smooth and glossy.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
  7. Cool completely in the pan before slicing into 9 squares.

Notes

  • For gooier brownies, bake closer to 20 minutes.
  • Use white sugar for the best crinkly top texture.
  • Make it dairy-free by using coconut oil and dairy-free chocolate.
  • Do not overbake—brownies will continue to set as they cool.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerate for extra chewiness.
