Swap butter with Peanut butter- shiny crackled top , firm, gooey interior , crispy edges Applesauce -smell sweet with plush and firm banana bread texture , bubbly top 2x chocolate - takes longer to bake , rise the most , edges are harder from extra sugar in chocolate , more chocolatey with sticky creamy texture that melts like cookie dough Fewer eggs - thick,cracks,fall apart easily but fudgy More eggs -air pockets , thin batter, soft n cakey n dense , less choco flavour Only cocoa - has alot of holes,pillowy soft n sticky , almost flavourless Only melted choco- crispy edges ,fudgy and alittle dense Brown sugar - less shiny top with more crack , buttery sweet , softer chewier , denser n more complex flavour Sugar -shiny top More sugar-more shiny and crackly , most crisp edge , melts in hand Less sugar -more bitter n cakier White chocolate - thin n runny batter , greasy interior , fudgy n very sweet More flour - lighter shade , alot of air pocket, falls apart easily because of how cakey it is Less flour - crinkly crust , denser n fudgy and very sticker but most choco flavour

[@abbybrooks3848]

These are the best videos ever! I love seeing how different ingredients and varying amounts of ingredients effect the final product when baking.

[@beyondtime88]

I'm unsure of the measurements in all these variations but my brownies which I've made the same way for over 15 years (and all my family love) is below if any one loves rich, fudgy brownies with a little crunch top. Its a recipe I got out of an old cook book and honestly it's the best and only recipe I'll ever bake. 2 & 1/2 oz unsalted butter (cubed) 2 & 1/2 oz self-raising flour (or plain with 1/4tsp baking powder) 6 oz caster sugar (or light soft brown can be used, it will just be a little harder to mix) 2 eggs (at least medium or large 'preferred') 100g dark chocolate (or atleast 65% cocoa) broken up into pieces Tablespoon of cocoa powder 70g chocolate chips, white&milk (optional) *Splash of milk (dependent on chocolate % used as the mixture should be pretty thick but not like glue) I use an 8inch Square tin (2in high) Baking paper - highly recommend (do not use foil) Preheat oven to 180c (fan oven) Line tin with the paper on bottom and up sides (this will prevent sticking and burning as it keeps the mixture out of the direct fan air) Melt the chocolate over a bain-marie (or carefully do short 20 sec blasts in the microwave, stirring in between) until nearly melted then add the butter to melt in too and take off and stir until combined. Add sugar and mix well (whisk or spatula). Leave to cool enough so that when you add eggs it won't scramble them. *Now if the mixture is very very thick you can add a splash of milk here. No more than 2 tbsp worth just to loosen it up so it just falls off a spoon. Then sift in flour and cocoa powder and stir gently (spatula) until just combined. Add in optional fillings. Spread carefully in tin making sure to evenly distribute as it should be thick enough not to spread itself without force. It should go 2/3 to the top of this size tin. Don't use a wider tin, it will mess with the cooking time and fudginess. The mixture should be about 1 1/2 inch deep. Other optional extras you can do is put on chopped walnuts or almonds or marble in ontop gently a scoop of salted caramel. Bake for a min of 12mins on 180c then turn down to 160c and check every 2-3mins until a skewer test is 'almost clean' so a small amount should still be soft and on the skewer. This gets the nice crispy cracked top but then let's the middle cook a little longer if needed without burning. Do not over cook past the almost cooked phase as they will stiffen quite a bit as cooling. (You can always put them back in for another few minutes if they are still too runny before cooled). Cut when cooled (9 or 12 pieces dependent on how greedy you want to be). They can also be reheated for about 15 secs in a microwave a piece to re-goo-i-fy and are amazing with a scoop of ice cream. Plus anyone worried about how much sugar this is, it works out to roughly 14.2g sugar each in 12 pieces (which is equivalent to only 3 teaspoons) so if you have sugar in every hot drink then it's not really that much more than 2-3 cups of tea/coffee.

Honestly brownies are one of my all time favorites! The PB, brown sugar, less eggs, and double chocolate look the best to me! This was incredible interesting and informative. I prefer a super fudgy brownie that is dense and really chocolate-y. Than you so much for this-one of the best videos I’ve ever seen!!! Keeping this for sure!

[@bexyPTX]

That peanut butter brownie is my kind of brownie, looks so good

[@lillifee5984]

The Brownie with white chocolate is called "blondie" 😃🤣

[@vsmoxs8382]

Actually a blondie isn’t made with white chocolate, you can add white chocolate which would make it a white chocolate blondie. A blondie is made with brown sugar as opposed to a brownie which usually uses white sugar and chocolate.

[@sarahvanrooyen7280]

White chaclate is not as good as milk or dark chaclate.

[@taliah3379]

[@jp8649]

​@@vsmoxs8382 I'm so confused? I thought a blondie looked kinda like a chocolate chip cookie bar instead of the cocoa/chocolate base of the brownie w/any chip, caramel, apples, toffee, etc that you want to toss in there. I've def seen A LOT of regular brownies with brown and white sugar. My favorite brownie recipe from Preppy Kitchen has brown sugar in it. Doubting my sanity tbh, lol. Not that any of this matters.

[@vsmoxs8382]

@@jp8649 haha I get you it’s all very confusing and somewhat frivolous. Brownies can have brown sugar but I just made the distinction as an example because the defining feature of a blondie is the flavour that it gets from brown sugar rather than white chocolate as some people believe.

Doubling the chocolate looked the best to me, I like brownies that are dense and dark in the middle, with that chewy stickiness.

Best brownies I've ever had were made with a standard brownie recipe, with Dutch cocoa powder and melted semi sweet chocolate, then you make fudge but dont let it solidify, add that to the brownie batter and add a half cup to one cup more flour. I think add maybe 5 minutes on on name time. Delicious and rich, perfect texture, crackly surface, shiny, dark and decadent. Very fudgy inside obviously

[@MagicBugzii]

I use less flour, brown sugar and (most importantly) 8-12 hour rest time after baking. It's amazing how much the rest time can affect the texture of a brownie. I've got 3 other alterations I know everyone has tried at some point to add to the list; -a spoonful of soluble coffee into the melted butter for a more intense flavour -swapping some butter for oil (keeps them moist for people who like gooey brownies) -swapping melted chocolate for nutella :)

[@linusyootasteisking]

the "less flour" at the cakey end should say "more eggs", they didnt' put that one up there and it looks very similar.

[@florence.exe.]

the 'more flour' is in the middle. the correct 'less flour' is on the right and the 'more eggs' (labeled as less flour) is on the far right. in other words, less flour is on the left, more flour is in the middle, and more eggs is on the right.

The best brownie recipe is from Carnaldish. And if you want to strike that perfect balance between cakey and fudgey sub some of the AP flour for cake flour and add a pinch of baking powder. Just use quality chocolate and vanilla and do what your family likes.

I need some help!!! I really messed up my brownies! I don't want to throw it all away, but I put a stupid amount of baking soda (cup instead of spoon measurement). Is there anything at all I could do with it? Thanks so much!

[@unclebobboomergames]

So I did a small brownie recipe that was Stick butter Cup of sugar Half Cup chocolate Teaspoon Vanilla Half Cup Flour Quarter Teaspoon salt Now the recipe was already made for a fudgier brownie. So I made it "worse" by substituting the chocolate for lindor chocolate truffles. Specifically their dark chocolate. Which the ganache just being cream mixed in essentially, this are them even more dense. But because the chocolate is sweeter it made it a bit too sweet. So im gonna do a quarter Cup less sugar next time but add a whole Half Cup extra of the truffles smashed up and folded in. I folded in some but could use maybe a quarter Cup more. Even still it turned out to be the fudgiest and dentist brownie I've ever had. I just need to alter the flavor with less sweetness without the density really being altered.

[@flavor-addiction]

I did this recipe a few times. Mine turned out crispy on the outside, but more dry on the inside. It's more like a cake without cream. To see for yourself what i mean, here's a video of the brownie i made: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJ7dpZhumtt6qtU Some findings: -The darker the chocolate the richer and fudgier your brownies will be. -After the chocolate is fully melted, place it in a cool place for a few minutes or until it gets around the room temperature, to avoid ruining the eggs during the mixing phase. -The brown sugar brings moisture and the white sugar makes it crispy. -To intensify the chocolate taste add some salt. Salt brings out the flavour whilst balancing out sweetness.

[@eugeemz]

So what youre telling me is that i can substitute white chocolate for butter?

[@florence.exe.]

no, i dont think thats what they are saying. white chocolate has a higher density of cocoa butter than milk or dark chocolate, though cocoa butter is still found in those. the cocoa nibs or solids are what cause the darkened color and intense chocolate flavor. cocoa butter can be used to replace real butter but only in its purest form. for context, dark chocolate has ≥ 18%, milk chocolate has ≥ 15%, and white chocolate has ≥ 20% cocoa butter. you can buy 100% cocoa butter for baking, but it is a seperate product.

[@MissAllie0717]

FYI i think the brownie on the cakey side labeled “less flour” should actually be labeled “more eggs”

The only ones that are going to be edible overall are the peanut butter one (The fat and protein content of peanut butter is a better replacement for butter than applesauce. That one doesn't make sense to me when you think of the composition.) and the ones with more or less eggs. The apple sauce one and the funny colored one look really gross. The cocoa powder only one might work if you add a splash of whole milk.
