Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz (226 g) white chocolate bars, high-quality, chopped (Lindt or Ghirardelli recommended)
- 1¼ cups (250 g) granulated white sugar
- 1¾ cups (219 g) all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- ¾ cup (168 g) unsalted butter, chopped into small cubes
- 2 large eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) vanilla extract
- ¾ tsp salt
Instructions
- Preparation: Grease a 9×9-inch pan and line with parchment paper, ensuring smooth removal of the final dessert.
- Chocolate Melting: Combine white chocolate and butter in a double boiler, stirring consistently to create a glossy, uniform mixture without scorching.
- Egg Mixture: Whip eggs, egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla extract until the blend becomes light, fluffy, and pale in color, developing a rich, creamy texture.
- Incorporation: Methodically integrate the molten white chocolate into the egg mixture, whisking to create a seamless, silky consistency.
- Batter Finalization: Gently fold flour and salt into the liquid ingredients, using a rubber spatula to maintain the batter’s delicate structure and prevent overmixing.
- Baking Process: Pour the velvety batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the surface evenly with a mini offset spatula, then bake in a preheated oven at 325°F for approximately 30 minutes.
- Cooling and Finishing: Remove from the oven when edges turn golden and a toothpick comes out clean, then cool completely on a wire rack before carefully cutting into 16 elegant squares for serving.
Notes
- Prevent Scorching: Use a double boiler and stir white chocolate constantly to avoid burning, ensuring a smooth and creamy chocolate base.
- Whip for Perfection: Beat eggs and sugar until the mixture becomes pale and fluffy, creating a light, airy texture that’s crucial for delicate brownies.
- Fold Gently: Mix flour with a light hand using a rubber spatula to maintain the batter’s delicate structure and prevent tough, dense brownies.
- Temperature Matters: Bake at exactly 325°F and check doneness with a toothpick test to achieve perfectly moist, golden-edged white chocolate brownies.
