Description
This chocolate brownie cake combines the rich, fudgy texture of brownies with the soft, moist crumb of a cake. Made with simple ingredients, this indulgent dessert is perfect for chocolate lovers. Serve it warm with a scoop of ice cream or drizzle with ganache for an extra decadent treat.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup milk
- ½ cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk. Stir until just combined.
Fold in chocolate chips if using.
Pour batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 35–40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Serve warm or let it cool completely before slicing.
Notes
For a fudgier texture, slightly underbake the cake.
Add nuts or extra chocolate chips for more texture.
Serve with whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate ganache for extra richness.
