Nigella’s Everyday Brownies Recipe with step by step pictures. Moist Fudgy brownies which has nuggets of chocolate pieces scattered all over it.
Chocolate Brownies
“Brownies” Saying that name makes me happy. I love brownies, I love each letter of the word “Brownies”. If I see any recipes named as Brownies. I will stare at that at least for a few minutes (From this you get to know how much I love brownies).. My love for brownies had made me post quite a few brownie recipe in this blog. But among all those brownies this has become my latest favorite.
I actually halved the original recipe. But i have written both the measurements. So if you want, you could double or even triple the recipe. I beg you to give this a try. It was so gooey in the middle and crusty in the top with a little bit of creamy milk chocolate bites. I know this sounds like HEAVEN. Please give it a try and let me know what you think.
This is one is my Favorite Domestic Goddess Nigella’s recipe. This recipe is from her latest show “Nigella’s Kitchen”. I watched this video last week and believe it or not I made it the next day itself. And today I made it again for my friends.

Dear Aarthi,
Thank you for your lovely note on my blog! It's a pleasure to have you stop by and try some gluten-free recipes 🙂 These brownies look AMAZING!!! I would love to try a gluten-free version of these...I would just sub the regular flour with rice/tapioca/sorghum flour and I'm sure they'll be delicious!!! Thanks for sharing.
All the best,
Emily xo

A pretty different kind of brownie, it looks great, so I will try Nigella's recipe, I use the old fashioned recipe were you melt the chocolate with the butter first.

Really yummy looking brownies!
annie
lovely recipe but I have a small doubt.How hot should the mix be when u add the eggs/ i did it while it was on the gas and they nearly turned to omlettes! should it be just warm or lil warm or straight off the gas?? Please revert
Thanks!!
Aarthi
@Annie you should not add eggs when the mixture is in flame,you should take it out of the flame and let it cool for 2-3 min.then add in your eggs so it wont scramble...Hope you got it..
ReBOrn

Hi Aarthi, I am planning to do this Everyday brownies tomorrow. I have 2 doubts.
1) CAN I SUBSTITUTE OIL IN THE PLACE OF BUTTER. If so, how much oil should I add?
2)Will all other ingredient measurements remain the same if I add butter?
Please reply at the earliest. Bye..... UmaRaghu/Poland
