Instructions

1
|
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring and scraping the pan every 10-15 seconds. The butter will melt, foam, then turn golden brown with nutty aroma and small brown bits (about 5-7 minutes). Remove from heat and add cocoa powder and milk or dark chocolate bar in hot butter.Mix thoroughly till there're no lumps in it and set it aside to cool.
2
|
Preheat the oven at 166C if you're using dark colour aluminum pan or at 176C if using lighter colour aluminum pan.
3
|
Line a square 8 inch baking tin with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal. Lightly grease the paper.
4
|
In a bowl add eggs, white sugar, light brown sugar, whisk together until most or all of the sugar granules have dissolved. This step is essential for achieving that shiny, crinkly top.
5
|
Once the sugar has dissolved, add the brown butter, cocoa powder, melted dark or milk chocolate mixture and vanilla extract. Mix everything together.
6
|
Add the all-purpose flour and salt and mix just until combined, avoid overmixing.
7
|
Fold in the chocolate chips or chunks until evenly distributed.
8
|
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 30-40 minutes.
9
|
Begin checking at the 25 minute mark by inserting a knife into the center. The brownies are done when the edges are set and the knife comes out with a little batter still clinging to it. Depending on your oven, total bake time may be up to 40 minutes.
10
|
Let them cool down when they're done baking.
11
|
In a bowl whisk mascarpone, double cream & Sugar together till you get a thick consistency.
12
|
Mix caramel, double cream and salt together in a bowl.
13
|
Add mascarpone layer on the brownie and refrigerate it to set for 3-4 hours.
14
|
Add caramel layer in the end and then refrigerate it again to set.
15
|
Bring it to room temperature before serving and enjoy.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Bloom Your Cocoa Powder 🍫
    Whisk cocoa powder with hot melted chocolate and a splash of water before adding to batter to intensify chocolate flavor and eliminate any grittiness for silky texture.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter ✋
    Fold dry ingredients gently into wet ingredients until just combined; overmixing develops gluten and creates tough, cakey brownies instead of fudgy ones.
  • Temperature Control for Mascarpone Layer ❄️
    Keep mascarpone and heavy cream chilled until the last moment and use room-temperature ingredients sparingly; this prevents curdling and ensures a silky, stable cream layer.
  • Strategic Salt Placement 🧂
    Sprinkle fleur de sel on top of the caramel drizzle just before serving to enhance sweetness and create a sophisticated contrast that elevates the entire dessert.
  • Underbake for Fudgy Centers 🕐
    Remove brownies from oven when a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter), then let cool completely in the pan for 30+ minutes before layering for optimal texture.
