Description

Ultra-rich, fudgy Chocolate Ganache Gooey Brownies loaded with creamy peanut butter and velvety dark chocolate. These brownies offer dense, decadent, and irresistibly gooey chocolate indulgence perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

375 g chocolate (sweet dark or preferred type)

3 tbsp creamy peanut butter

160 g plain white flour

250 g white caster sugar

½ tsp salt

120 g unsalted butter

1½ tbsp vanilla extract

120 ml soy milk

60 g cocoa powder


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a heatproof bowl, melt the chocolate and butter together until smooth, using a double boiler or microwave in 30-second bursts. Stir in the creamy peanut butter until fully combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, cocoa powder, and salt until evenly mixed.
  4. Pour vanilla extract and soy milk into the melted chocolate mixture and stir until smooth.
  5. Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined—do not overmix.
  6. Pour the thick batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top evenly.
  7. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until the edges are set but the center remains slightly gooey.
  8. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares. Enjoy as-is or warm with a scoop of ice cream.

Notes

Add chocolate chunks or chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans for extra texture and flavor.

Use vegan butter and dairy-free chocolate to make the recipe dairy-free.

Swap peanut butter for almond or cashew butter for a different nutty taste.

Sprinkle sea salt on top before baking for a sweet-salty contrast.

Add a swirl of caramel or raspberry jam before baking for a fruity or rich twist.

Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.

Freeze brownies for up to 3 months; thaw at room temperature before serving.

Reheat individual brownies in the microwave for 10–15 seconds to enjoy gooey warmth.
