Why you’ll love these white chocolate brownies

  • They are fudgy and chewy and burst with white chocolate flavor!
  • They aren’t too sweet. Since white chocolate is already sweet, I only added 1/4 cup of sugar. (Most traditional brownie recipes use over 1 cup)
  • The contrast of the dark chocolate chips works really well against the white chocolate base.
  • They are great to make for the white chocolate lovers in your life.
  • They are done in less than 30 minutes, including prep and baking.

Recipe ingredients

Ingredients needed to make white chocolate brownies.
  • butter– use any good quality butter here.
  • white chocolate chips– use white chocolate that you like the taste of. I like Ghirardelli white chocolate chips.
  • dark chocolate chips– again make sure you like the chocolate you are using. You can use dark or semi-sweet chocolate here.
  • eggs– these help bind the brownies together.
  • sugar– organic cane sugar works well here.
  • flour– I like to use an organic all purpose flour.
  • baking powder– this helps the brownies rise a bit.
  • vanilla– this give a nice flavor.

Expert tips

  • Don’t melt the white chocolate at too high of heat or too quickly or it will become grainy. The key is to microwave it in 15 second increments.
  • Use good quality white chocolate that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Set chocolate chips aside to add to the top of the brownies prior to baking. This makes the brownies prettier.
  • If you want gooey brownies, cook them for less time. If you want firmer brownies, cook them for longer.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Tablespoons butter
  • 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips divided in half
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3/4 cups dark chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Grease an 8×8 inch pan and line with parchment paper.
  • Put the butter and 3/4 cups of white chocolate chips in a small microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 15 second increments until melted.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the eggs and sugar with a a hand-held electric mixer until light and a bit foamy. This should take 2 minutes.
  • Add the melted white chocolate mixture, flour, baking powder and vanilla to the egg mixture and beat with an electric mixer until just mixed.
  • Fold in 3/4 cups of the white chocolate chips and 3/4 cups of the dark chocolate chips into the mixture. Pour into the greased and lined pan, and push down on the batter with a rubber spatula to evenly spread it in the pan.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes. Start checking it at the 20 minute mark. You'll know they are done when the edges start to get a little bit golden and the middle looks set.
  • Let the brownies cool for 20 minutes prior to cutting. (If you can wait that long). These also taste delicious warm.

Notes

  • Don’t melt the white chocolate at too high of heat or too quickly or it will become grainy. The key is to microwave it in 15 second increments.
