Everyone should have an easy go to One Pot Chocolate Brownie Recipe and this one is easy, quick and results in a gorgeous dense fudgy Brownie just like a Brownie should be!
Also this Brownie is just fine on its own, sure you can add White Chocolate or walnuts or your favourite chocolate bar – but its perfect as is! A light dusting of icing sugar and your friends will be impressed.
There are many variations of this online and for this one I amended the Chocolate Brownie I already have slightly and its perfect! Of course it is full of sugar and a healthy dose of butter so if you are anti either of those ingredients either amend the recipe or look elsewhere! 🙂
I expected to need to cook this for much longer than I did – after 25 minutes mine was cooked – so I would suggest you test it at 25 minutes and keep an eye on it at five minute intervals. You want the inside to be moist but the mixture to not stick a skewer inserted in the middle. The top will be cooked and it will feel firm at your touch, but the inside retains an almost undercooked look – but it is the perfect outcome!
All this being said I am still a huge fan of the other brownie recipe I have on here – so do check out both – in fact make both and have a competition as to which one you love more!

The all in one pot cooking method is the same as my divine Lemon Coconut Slice – too good to miss so try that one out too! Less dishes, lots of gorgeous fudgy goodness and easy!

Can you simply sub gluten free flour in this recipe?
justamumnz says
I have not tried but others tell me it does work. Use the GF flour you would normally use with success in your baking.

Abigail says
Wanted to find a quick and easy brownie recipe to make some special brownies and this is fab!
Cooled in the fridge and then sprinkled with a healthy dose of icing sugar these were divine, and only 25mins (mine was perfect at 23mins). I did also reduce the sugar by 60g and they were just as good!
Tami says
What Cocoa powder do you use? I’ve been using the countdown home brand but if there’s a better tasting one I’d love to know ❤️
justamumnz says
I usually use that one too or Sun Valley is the other one I like.

Hi Anna
I made your Divine Chocolate Brownies today, they were amazing. I am so happy that I found your website. This is the first time I have been able to bake for five years! Having CRPS causes havoc but today I parked up my walker and pulled out a high stool and hey presto these amazing Brownies appeared. Thank you, it was really worth having to take to bed after spending time whisking and watching magic appear in the oven ??Thank you!!!
justamumnz says
I’m so pleased to hear that Joan! What a wonderful first recipe to choose and definitely worth the effort, I wonder what recipe you’ll try next ☺️

Lynne Ewison says
Yes, it did work in the end. Very nice !
justamumnz says
Great! Yes it’s a lovely recipe ☺️
Lynne Ewison says
I am trying this at the moment. The butter and sugar are not creaming together. What’s wrong??
justamumnz says
It comes together as best it can for melted butter and sugar. Mix it for about 3-4 minutes then add the eggs one at a time, it will become paler with each egg addition.
