Recipe FAQs

→ How do I keep the brownies fudgy?

Remove the brownies from the oven as soon as a toothpick emerges with moist crumbs to avoid overbaking and maintain fudginess.

→ Can I substitute walnuts with other nuts?

Yes, pecans or hazelnuts work well as alternatives, or you can omit nuts entirely for a nut-free version.

→ What is the benefit of melting butter in the pan first?

Melting butter directly in the baking pan streamlines mixing and minimizes cleanup by combining ingredients in one vessel.

→ Are chocolate chips necessary for the brownies?

Chocolate chips add extra bursts of chocolate but are optional; the brownies remain rich and flavorful without them.

→ How should I store leftover brownies?

Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
