Triple Chocolate Brownie Recipe


Above: Triple choc brownie at room temperature, dusted with icing sugar

Above: Triple choc brownie after refrigeration

This rich, moist brownie contains white and milk chocolate chunks. It can be served warm with cream and ice cream, at room temperature, or straight from the fridge. When served warm, the chocolate chunks are soft and melted. When served straight from the fridge, the chunks are firm and their texture provides a contrast to the soft, fudgey brownie.

We have also made this brownie with added nuts (reduce the chocolate chunks by 100g and add 100g of chopped nuts).

125g butter
150g milk chocolate (we use Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate)
50g dark chocolate
112g (1/2 cup) caster sugar
2 large eggs, lightly beaten (we use eggs with a minimum weight of 59g)
125g (3/4 cup + 1 tablespoon) plain flour
40g (1/4 cup) self-raising flour
125g white chocolate, chopped (we use Cadbury Dream white chocolate)
125g milk chocolate, chopped

Preheat oven to 170 degrees Celsius (150 degrees Celsius fan-forced). Grease and line a 20cm (8 inch) square cake pan.

Melt butter, 150g milk chocolate and 50g dark chocolate over low heat in a large saucepan, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes.

Combine plain and self-raising flours in a small bowl. Stir sugar and eggs into chocolate and butter mixture. Add flours and chopped chocolate and stir until combined. Spread into cake pan.

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Allow brownie to cool in pan on wire rack. When cooled, cut into squares. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container.

I made these today and they turned out nice! I substituted the white chocolate for 100g chopped almonds which went well with the brownies.

I cooked them for 40 minutes - next time I would reduce the cooking time slightly, because they weren't as moist as I had hoped for, but they were still great!

I made these again and they were even better than last time :-) Again, I didn't use the white chocolate, but did substitute it with 'baking walnuts' and I also added about an extra 80grams of dark chocolate to the 'chocolate & butter mix'. I reduced the cooking time by 5 minutes and they turned out beautifully - very chocolatey, fudgy and moist.

Thanks again for the recipe! I have finally found out how to make the perfect brownie :-) .

Once again Girls - fantastic recipe. A true brownie in everyway possible. Best eaten at room temp, to get full chocolate flavour. Made them for Easter dinner - was eaten before main meal! No leftovers here! A truly delightful fudgy brownie. Will be making again (of course!!)

These are so good! I added SLIGHTLY less flour to get a fudgier brownie. Next time i make these I am going to add a tiny bit of baking soda as I found they did not rise very much. One thing I did find was that when I cooked one batch for the recommended time they were SO overcooked and dry - I cooked them for half the recommended time and they were perfect. I seriously took them out of the oven after about 20 mins and they were great. Maybe it's just my oven though!:)

A very easy and workable recipe,but the cooking time is wrong, to have a nice moist centre cut the cooking time by almost half.

No, you don't need an electric mixer. The ingredients are stirred together by hand.

im about to get the brownies into the oven, and im not sure if i should do half the time or full becuase i read all 10 comments so far some say it was great and nothing about the time. although some say that half time is needed beause it wasnt moist enough?

which should i do???

In our oven, the brownie takes about 35 minutes to cook to our liking. However, every oven is different. We recommend that when you first make the brownie, you keep an eye on it to ensure that it doesn't overcook. If you have changed the ingredient quantities or are using a different pan size, you will need to adjust the baking time.
