Pro tips for better box brownies: 1. replace each egg the recipe calls for with two egg yolks (1 egg=2 yolks) 2. Replace the water 1:1 with milk. 3. When you stir it, be careful not to overstir. The batter should not be smooth when you pour it in. Rather it should still be kind of clumpy. This adds variety to the brownies. 4. Use parchment paper to keep the brownies from sticking 5. Cook it at about 25 degrees Fahrenheit lower than what it says for a longer time. Just keep an eye on it. You can do any one of these five steps on their own or do all five of them together. It should work with basically all box brownie mixes, and a lot of homemade recipes too.
@@katie7748 I've always failed at making homemade brownies. They come out either too sweet or too dry, even if I follow a recipe exactly. They never come out right. That's why I use a box mix.
It's weird to think back on the brownies I've eaten and which style I prefer... 🤔 I might prefer chewy, as I'm not big in fudge, in general... 🤔 Might explain why brownies feel hit or miss, and I wasn't sure why 🤔
Can you elaborate further? Brownies are one of my favorite desserts but I can never get a proper crust or fudgey interior. It always ends up like a flat cake or a crunchy cookie.
what happens if you use no sugar and just some vanilla extract/essence? thats how i bake but ive never tried baking brownies (i have a sensitivity to sugar)
@@DieNextInLINEif you use powdered sugar vs regular, it will be chewier :) I use powder sugar and condensed milk and make a perfect fudgey&chewey brownie. And then spread cakie brownie frosting on top. It’s the best of all worlds. Combined recipes from babish, Adam ragusea and Joshua Weissman :)
THANK YOU for not only recognizing that chewy and fudgy brownies are different, but also telling us how to get a chewier texture when baking brownies. chewy brownies are my favorite but i have had one hell of a time trying to find a recipe or box mix that makes _chewy_ brownies instead of fudgy

@@thewholeNyne probably taking any fudgy recipe or box mix and replacing one of the eggs with two egg yolks instead would be a good place to start. it may vary slightly from recipe to recipe
@@thewholeNyne the recipes I've seen (such as Adam Ragusea's) have generally said to use egg yolks for chewy, whole egg for cakey. the difference between fudgy and chewy lies in overall moisture content and can be achieved by using clarified/browned butter or some type of oil instead of plain butter (which contains water) basically, to turn a cakey recipe into a fugy/chewy recipe you swap out the whole eggs for an equal quantity of egg yolks. for fudgy vs chewy it will depend on the recipe itself (particularly water content).

Fudgy brownies are the best imo. Bc you can get a chewy and fudgy brownie out of them. When they’re hot they’re more fudgy and when they cool off they become more chewy. People who want cakey brownies don’t really like brownies lol
As someone who likes fudge, I have to to disagree. If I can’t feel the difference in eating a bar of fudge/chocolate and a brownie, then I consider it a fail. It doesn’t have to be cakey but I shouldn’t be eating chocolate sauce either. I could just eat fudge.
I will never forget the time I made some brownies for my sons father's family reunion... and when his uncle went to cut into it with a butter knife, then a steak knife and follow it up with a butchers knife... only for me to realize I had forgotten to put the eggs 🤦🏾♀️ they were hard as a brick 😂😂😂
great video! can you maybe talk about baking using pumpkin puree? I tried making a pumpkin cake/bread and it didn't rise at all, it was a solid slab of pumpkin :( And usually i don't have problems with my baking so i don't know what went wrong
You need a good amount of leavening and liquid as pumpkin puree is very thick and not very waterlugging as it is quite concentrated. Also do make sure not to overmix your batter as well. And it's about the correct ratio of eggs, oil, puree, liquid, leavening, and flour. You need to essentially find that golden balance between ingredients.
Also, if you don’t bake often, check your leavening agents to make sure they’re fresh - baking powder, in particular, loses efficacy after a time & can become inert.
@@anthonyvenedicto518 thanks! the damn gluten development will be the death of me. I swear, when i need it to develop it never does. but when i make cake batter god forbid i let the mixer run a second longer
My grandma uses a box mix and says only ever use one egg, I think their great, and you gotta add the powdered sugar on top. My brother made brownies with more eggs one time and I hated them.
I don’t know how I did it, but I once created the best brownies I’ve ever had completely on accident. I had a box mix and I guess something went wrong with the ingredients or something. I went ahead anyway and baked it. It was the most amazing texture, like all three at once. I miss that tray of brownies, tried many times to recreate it but alas
see the issue with referring to tips like that as a way to make brownies "better" is that tastes vary. i for one hate the crackly tops brownies can get (possibly due to autism sensory issues/texture icks) and prefer my brownies to fall more solidly chewy than fudgy so i would not call that a better brownie. still, thanks for posting this cause now i know something i can avoid to minimize that crackly top!
@@Ari_C Thanks for letting me know, I'll try to explain what I mean by "better" next time If you don't want that crackly top just beat the eggs lightly until you mix the sugar properly (should take just a couple of minutes), it gets softer and chewier!
Very interesting. I just saw a post asking which is your preferred brownie? Fudgy or cakey or chewy and I’m on the chewy and fudgy side. Could you do a few recipe videos of your best, hits every time kind of recipes for classics like cake and brownies?
@khanwayne8281 just because cakey brownies are not for everyone doesn't mean they suck. We all have different preferences on textures and flavors of our food. I love a gooey and chewy brownie, but even if I had to eat a cake brownie, I'd still be happy because at the end of the day, it's still a brownie, just not my preference.
@@anthonyvenedicto518 No. Cakey brownies suck. Tastes do vary some enjoy good brownies and some enjoy crap. Just because Jeffery Dahmer enjoyed eating people doesn’t mean we should.
My South African mate, who eats meat like its a side of rice introduced me to vegan beetroot brownies. They are the best version, and I will never go back.
One time, me and my dad made fudge because why not and we followed my grandma’s recipe. (which was from a book, but re-written down on a peice of paper) We followed every step. The last step was to let it sit for a while. We let it sit for a DAY… and it was STILL LIQUID 😭. We had no idea what we did wrong at the time. (We didn’t caramelize the sugar I guess idk) anyways that’s the story of how me and my dad made cakey, fudge pudding. (It tasted like fudge btw)😅
I like how most sweets/pastries try to be light, airy, and fluffy, whereas brownies just try to be as dense as possible
if i didnt just swallow a chocolate brick, it's not a good brownie

Pro tips for better box brownies:
1. replace each egg the recipe calls for with two egg yolks (1 egg=2 yolks)
2. Replace the water 1:1 with milk.
3. When you stir it, be careful not to overstir. The batter should not be smooth when you pour it in. Rather it should still be kind of clumpy. This adds variety to the brownies.
4. Use parchment paper to keep the brownies from sticking
5. Cook it at about 25 degrees Fahrenheit lower than what it says for a longer time. Just keep an eye on it.

It depends on the quantities and ratios of the recipe. If the recipie calls for 3 eggs, do 2 whole and 2 yolks
FINALLY KNOW HOW TO MAKE THEM CHEWY THANKS 🎉
Mine are usually undercooked but in a good and tasty way
Having a fudge brownie then drinking a fresh cold water after hits different
Try milk after for better results

Hits different because they aren't meant to go together. At all. Lol. Milk. Coffee. Hot tea.
Anyone hoping he makes a website sharing his recipes. 🙋🏾♀️

I love brownies
Fudgy brownies are the best for sure! Chewy brownies are where it's at.
Omg it's the famous chicken
Make more videos
Also we all saw you from a comment and at first I was thinking u were a bot or smth
1 video, from about a week ago, and you have over a million subscribers, AND you know I found you from a comment - what is this channel about?
For an even fudgier texture: replace the eggs with silken tofu. Sounds grim but actually makes the most delicious brownies.
Very interesting. I just saw a post asking which is your preferred brownie? Fudgy or cakey or chewy and I’m on the chewy and fudgy side. Could you do a few recipe videos of your best, hits every time kind of recipes for classics like cake and brownies?
i absolutely agree if i aint chewy and fudgey it ain't a brownie, a cakey brownie is just a chocolate cake
@@resolecca well said
If you show up with a cakey brownie i know not to ask you for sweets no more😂
If my brownie isn’t as dense as a brick, it’s not a brownie
If it’s not cakey the texture is horrible though
I LOVE CHEWY BROWNIES RAHHH
Can you please make a perfect brownie recipe in every texture?
If you like Cakey Brownies you just like Cake.
You must be a mind reader or something because I literally just made homemade brownies last night😂
The difference between delicious and disgusting brownies.

@@anthonyvenedicto518 cakey brownies are gross. Fudgy and chewy are the only way to brownie.
@khanwayne8281 just because cakey brownies are not for everyone doesn't mean they suck. We all have different preferences on textures and flavors of our food. I love a gooey and chewy brownie, but even if I had to eat a cake brownie, I'd still be happy because at the end of the day, it's still a brownie, just not my preference.
@@anthonyvenedicto518 No. Cakey brownies suck. Tastes do vary some enjoy good brownies and some enjoy crap. Just because Jeffery Dahmer enjoyed eating people doesn’t mean we should.
@@khanwayne8281 🙄🙄🙄
I love chewy brownies. Now ai know how to make it happen. ❤
My South African mate, who eats meat like its a side of rice introduced me to vegan beetroot brownies. They are the best version, and I will never go back.
I am a "selt taught" cook that has always been intimidated by baking, but brother, you're serving up priceless knowledge
Now I want a brownie
I can tell just from looking at those that the fudgy one is God tier 🤤
I like cakey never really knew how to make it
CAKE LIKE BROWNIES IDC>>>
I had chewy brownie yesterday ugh it was the best brownie I've ever had
TY I LOVE CHEWY BROWNIES
Those all look delicious
why do your brownies look SOOO BANGIN
In Indonesia, I believe because of Japanese involvement. We tend have everything soft, like soft bread, spongy brownie etc
I think I prefer the first and third types.
One time, me and my dad made fudge because why not and we followed my grandma’s recipe. (which was from a book, but re-written down on a peice of paper) We followed every step. The last step was to let it sit for a while. We let it sit for a DAY… and it was STILL LIQUID 😭. We had no idea what we did wrong at the time. (We didn’t caramelize the sugar I guess idk) anyways that’s the story of how me and my dad made cakey, fudge pudding. (It tasted like fudge btw)😅
I’m making brownies as a graduation gift for a 76 year old man in my substance abuse recovery group so I appreciate the tips ❤
I absolutely HATE when I bite into a brownie and get the cake texture. I wanted a brownie, not a sad chocolate cake.
Brownies as a dessert are so underrated. They are easily my number 1 but i feel like they arent mentioned a lot in the GOAT convo
I love the way you are didactic! I'm also passionate about confectionery❤❤
