Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend for gluten-free option)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Crunchy Addition

  • 1 cup honey roasted cornflakes (plus extra for sprinkling on top)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all ingredients and preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a baking pan with parchment paper. Let the butter and eggs come to room temperature for smoother mixing.
  2. Melt Butter and Chocolate: In a heatproof bowl set over simmering water or in short bursts in the microwave, melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together. Stir continuously until the mixture is silky smooth.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: Whisk sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until well combined. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract until the mixture is glossy and thick.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold these dry ingredients into the wet chocolate mixture, taking care not to overmix to maintain a tender crumb.
  5. Add Honey Roasted Cornflakes: Gently fold in the honey roasted cornflakes, reserving some to sprinkle on top for added crunch and visual appeal.
  6. Bake and Cool: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the surface. Evenly sprinkle the remaining cornflakes on top. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let the brownies cool completely before slicing to preserve the crunchy texture.

Notes

  • Use fresh honey roasted cornflakes to ensure maximum crunchiness.
  • Gently fold dry ingredients to avoid tough brownies and maintain a tender crumb.
  • Do not overbake as it can dry out brownies and soften the cornflake crunch.
  • Allow brownies to cool fully before cutting to keep the cornflake texture intact.
  • Line your baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal and cleaner cuts.
