This Easy Fudge Brownie Recipe is another basic go-to around my house. I love this recipe because it is really fudgey and easy to modify. This is one recipe I have made sure all of my kiddos know how to make on their own. These are perfect for any gathering of family or friends. These fudge brownies are also perfect for holidays year-round.

You can literally add just about anything to these brownies to make them even better! Throw in a cup of mini marshmallows and a half cup of walnuts to create a great flavor. I break them up and make mini trifles with them. They are also great as gifts during the holidays.

I make these with chocolate chips to give a little texture, but you can leave them out or substitute white chocolate chips to give a different flavor. I love mixing both milk chocolate and white chocolate chips. You can also chop up your favorite candy and mix it in this brownie batter. Heath bars and caramel chips are a great addition.

Gather your ingredients

• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 3/4 cups flour
• 2/3 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 cups chocolate chips (you can use any type of chocolate chips here)
• 3/4 cups butter
• 2 large eggs
• 2 Tbsp water
• 1 tsp vanilla

Let’s start baking!

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Spray a 9 X 13 inch pan generously with non-stick cooking spray or coat in cooking oil or shortening.
• In medium mixing bowl, stir together sugar, flour, cocoa powder, and chocolate chips.
• In a large mixing bowl mix the eggs, butter, water and vanilla together until combined well.
• Gently add the flour mixture in with the egg mixture until thoroughly combined.
• Slowly pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread out evenly with spoon.
• Bake in the middle of the center rack of the oven for 35 minutes. You want the middle to be moist still, but set.
• Carefully remove from oven and allow to cool for an hour.
• Cut into bite sized pieces and enjoy!
