Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Batter

  • 2/3 cup unsalted butter
  • 6 oz white baking 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 and leveled

Chocolate Toppings

  • 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 (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the brownies evenly.
  2. Prepare Pan: Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil and spray it with non-stick cooking spray. This makes removing the brownies easier after baking.
  3. Melt Butter and White Chocolate: In a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and white baking chocolate together in 20-second bursts, stirring well after each burst until smooth and fully melted. This prevents burning and ensures a uniform melt.
  4. Cool Mixture: Let the melted mixture cool for about 5 minutes so it doesn’t cook the eggs in the next step.
  5. Add Sugar, Vanilla, Eggs, and Salt: Whisk in the granulated sugar, vanilla extract, eggs, and salt until fully combined. This forms the base of the brownie batter.
  6. Incorporate Flour: Gently fold in the all-purpose flour until just combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the brownies tender.
  7. Transfer and Bake: Spoon the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 20 to 24 minutes, or until the top is set, the sides start to pull away from the pan, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs or clean.
  8. Cool the Brownies: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan. Cooling fully helps them set for easier cutting.
  9. Remove and Cut: Using the foil edges, lift the brownies out of the pan and peel back the foil. Cut into 9 or 12 squares, depending on desired size.
  10. Decorate with Melted Chocolate: In a small bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave using 20-second bursts, stirring between bursts until smooth. Drizzle over the brownie squares. Repeat the process with the semi-sweet chocolate chips and drizzle over the squares to add contrasting chocolate decoration and flavor.

Notes

  • Use baking white chocolate instead of candy melts for better texture and flavor in the brownies.
  • Room temperature eggs help achieve a smoother batter and better brownie texture.
  • Do not overbake to keep brownies moist and fudgy; check with a toothpick for moist crumbs.
  • Cooling the brownies completely before adding melted chocolate toppings prevents the drizzle from melting and sliding off.
  • For easier cleanup and removal, make sure to properly grease and line the baking pan with foil.
