Main Ingredients

  • 4 units huevos (eggs) For moisture and structure
  • 200 gr chocolate Provides richness and flavor
  • 300 gr azĂșcar (sugar) Adds sweetness
  • 140 gr harina 0000 (all-purpose flour) For structure
  • 120 gr manteca (butter) For moisture and flavor
  • 1 pinch pizca grande de sal (salt) Enhances flavor

Optional Ingredients

  • 10 gr cacao amargo (cocoa powder) Adds depth of chocolate flavor
  • Nueces (nuts) For crunch and flavor
  • Grajeas (sprinkles) For decorative crunch and sweetness
  • Galletas (cookies) For added texture
  • Nutella For creaminess and flavor
  • Dulce de leche For added sweetness and richness

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to the right temperature.
  • Melt the 200 grams of chocolate and 120 grams of butter together in a mixing bowl, over a double boiler or in the microwave.
  • Add 300 grams of sugar to the melted chocolate and butter mixture and whisk until well mixed.
  • Incorporate the 4 eggs one at a time, mixing each fully before adding the next.
  • Sift in the 140 grams of flour and the large pinch of salt, and gently fold the flour into the mixture.
  • Gently fold in optional ingredients if desired, like cocoa powder, nuts, or sprinkles.
  • Pour the brownie batter into a prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
  • Add spoonfuls of Nutella or dulce de leche on top of the batter and swirl for a marbled effect.
  • Bake in the preheated oven and check for doneness.
  • Allow the brownies to cool in the dish before cutting into squares.

Notes

Make sure not to overmix the batter once the flour is added. Using high-quality chocolate will enhance the flavor significantly, and allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting.
