Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Batter

  • 2/3 cup unsalted butter
  • 6 oz white chocolate (use 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)

Chocolate Drizzle

  • 1/3 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (or dark chocolate chips)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) to ensure it is at the right temperature when your batter is ready.
  2. Prepare Pan: Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with aluminum foil and spray it with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.
  3. Melt Butter and White Chocolate: Place the unsalted butter and white chocolate chunks in a medium microwave-safe bowl and melt them in short bursts of 20 seconds, stirring well between each until fully melted and combined.
  4. Cool Mixture: Allow the melted butter and white chocolate to cool for 5 minutes to avoid cooking the eggs prematurely when added.
  5. Add Sugar and Flavor: Whisk the granulated sugar into the cooled mixture, then add vanilla extract, eggs, and salt, whisking well after each addition until smooth.
  6. Incorporate Flour: Gently fold in the all-purpose flour carefully until just combined, taking care not to overmix to maintain fudgy texture.
  7. Bake: Pour or spoon the batter into the prepared pan and bake in the preheated oven for 20-24 minutes. Check doneness when the top is set, sides begin to pull away, and a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs or clean.
  8. Cool Down: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan to set properly before removing and slicing.
  9. Remove and Slice: Use the edges of the aluminum foil to lift the brownies out of the pan carefully. Peel back the foil and cut into 9 or 12 squares as preferred.
  10. Prepare Chocolate Drizzle: In a small bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave in short 20 second bursts, stirring between each burst until smooth. Drizzle it over the brownie squares.
  11. Repeat with Semi-Sweet Chocolate: Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips the same way and drizzle them over the brownies for an attractive two-tone chocolate finish.

Notes

  • Use baking white chocolate, not candy melts, for the best texture and flavor.
  • Allow the melted butter and chocolate mixture to cool before adding eggs to prevent scrambling.
  • Do not overmix the batter after adding flour to keep the brownies fudgy.
  • Check brownies at 20 minutes to avoid overbaking; they should still be a bit soft in the center.
  • Use aluminum foil to line the pan for easy removal and cleaner edges.
  • For extra richness, use high-quality chocolate chips for drizzling.
