Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Decadent Chocolate Butterfinger Brownies.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 325°F (160°C). Grab a 13 x 9-inch baking pan and line it with foil for easy cleanup later. This little trick will make your life so much easier!
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake flour, baking powder, and salt. Give it a good stir to ensure everything is well mixed. This is the foundation of your brownies, so make sure it’s just right!
Step 3
Now, let’s melt the chocolate and butter together. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the chopped chocolate and butter. Microwave on high for 45 seconds, then stir. If it’s not fully melted, pop it back in the microwave for another 30 seconds, stirring until smooth. You might need to do this in 15-second intervals until it’s perfectly melted and glossy. This is where the magic begins!
Step 4
Once your chocolate and butter are melted and combined, whisk in the granulated sugar until it’s well incorporated. Next, add the eggs one at a time, whisking after each addition. This step is crucial for achieving that rich, fudgy texture we all love. Finally, stir in the vanilla extract for that extra layer of flavor.
Step 5
Gradually add the flour mixture to the chocolate mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; we want these brownies to be soft and chewy! Now, fold in half of the chopped Butterfinger candy, letting those crunchy bits get evenly distributed throughout the batter. Yum!
Step 6
Spoon the brownie batter into your prepared pan, spreading it out evenly. Bake in your preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes. You’ll know they’re done when a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. This is the perfect time to enjoy the heavenly aroma wafting through your kitchen!
Step 7
Once baked, let the brownies cool on a wire rack for about 5 minutes. Then, sprinkle the remaining chopped Butterfinger on top while they’re still warm, allowing the candy to melt slightly into the brownies. Let them cool completely before cutting into 2-inch squares. Trust me, the wait will be worth it!
