Triple Chocolate Brownies

My search for the ultimate fudgy brownie is over. It’s been a long journey but I think I’ve finally found a brownie recipe that I really love!

It’s dark, it’s fudgy and it’s really rich! Best of all, it’s got a nice crisp top that cracks when you bite into it.

I added some espresso powder into this recipe, which helped to enhance the chocolate flavor. I also added baking soda which gave these brownies an extra lift. That lift eliminated any battery goo that might have otherwise resulted.

I tossed in three kinds of chocolate to create the ultimate chocolatey brownie.

For variations, I think peanut butter chips or maybe even thin mints would be really good too!

These are family reunion tested and they passed with flying colors! I took these Triple Chocolate Brownies to a family reunion and they were gone in about 15 minutes, everyone loved them!

I hope you’ll give this recipe a try, because I think you’re going to love them too!

P.S. See the note in the recipe card below if you’re using an 8×8 pan.

  1. hey! thank you so much for publishing this recipe. i’ve made it literally dozens of times over the past three years, there’s nothing that better satisfies my chocolate cravings.

  2. i made these for a church bazaar and someone bought the whole pan! He looked me up and told me he made a caramel ice cream to serve at a dinner party he was hosting. He served a scoop of homemade caramel ice cream on top of a brownie then drizzled homemade salted caramel sauce over top of everything! wish I would have been invited to that dinner party!

  3. Absolutely amazing brownies! My absolute favorite and finger licking good. I’ve made them several times now and each time they have turned out awesome. Thanks so much for the recipe!
