How to make Skillet Brownies with Melted Chocolate and Sea Salt
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
Making the Brownie Batter
Whip the eggs in a standing electric mixer until combined.
Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, black cocoa powder, melted butter, baking powder, salt, and all-purpose flour.
Whip until the batter starts to pale, about one minute.
Baking
Place the batter in a medium (10 to 12-inch) cast iron skillet and smooth it out.
Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes until firm in the center.
Topping and Serving
Once the brownie is done, generously sprinkle milk chocolate chips on top.
Turn off the heat and leave the brownie in the oven for one minute to allow the chocolate chips to melt.
Remove from the oven and spread the melted chocolate evenly on the brownie.
Sprinkle with sea salt, then slice and serve.
Tips & Tricks
Use high-quality sea salt for a better flavor contrast.
Ensure the brownie is firm in the center before removing it from the oven.
FAQS
Can I use a different type of cocoa powder instead of black cocoa powder?
Yes, you can substitute black cocoa powder with regular unsweetened cocoa powder, but the flavor and color of the brownies may differ slightly.
What can I use if I don't have a cast iron skillet?
If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use any oven-safe baking dish or a regular baking pan, but adjust the baking time as needed.
How do I know when the brownies are done baking?
The brownies are done when they are firm in the center and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Can I add nuts or other mix-ins to the brownie batter?
Absolutely! You can add chopped nuts, chocolate chunks, or even caramel swirls to the batter before baking for added texture and flavor.
How should I store leftover brownies?
Store leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate them for up to a week. You can also freeze them for longer storage.
