Ingredients For the Brownies: • Unsalted butter 7 tbsp (100 g) • Dark chocolate 7 oz (200 g) • Brown sugar ⅓ cup (75 g) • White sugar ¼ cup (50 g) • Unsweetened cocoa powder ⅔ cup (70 g) • All-purpose flour ¾ cup (90 g) • Large eggs 3 • Instant coffee 1 tsp (or 1 packet – about 5 g) • Salt ¼ tsp • Olive oil 3 tbsp (50 g) • Vanilla extract ½ tsp • Plain yogurt 3 tbsp (40g) For the Salted Caramel: • Sugar ¾ cup (150 g) • Heavy cream ⅔ cup (150 ml) • Unsalted butter 2 tbsp (30 g) • Salt ¼ tsp Step-by-Step Instructions 1. Make the Brownie Batter − Melt the butter over medium heat until it turns golden brown. Reduce the heat and let it cook for 30 more seconds until it becomes a deep amber color. − Remove from heat. Add in chopped chocolate and instant coffee. Stir until completely melted and smooth. Set aside to cool. − In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, brown sugar, and white sugar on high speed for 4–5 minutes until light and fluffy. − Add sourdough starter (or yogurt), olive oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined. − Pour in the cooled butter-chocolate mixture. Mix on low speed until smooth. − Sift together the cocoa powder, flour, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing on low speed just until combined. − Pour the batter into a parchment-lined baking dish. Smooth out the top. − Cover and refrigerate for 2–3 hours for extra fudgy texture. 2. Make the Salted Caramel − Heat a dry skillet or saucepan over medium-high heat. (Test it by flicking a drop of water — it should sizzle and bead up.) − Add the sugar in small portions, letting each portion melt before adding the next. Don’t stir! Just gently swirl the pan as it melts. − Once most of the sugar is melted, you can gently press any unmelted bits with a spatula. − Add the butter and stir gently to combine. − Warm the cream slightly (don’t boil!) and pour it into the caramel in batches, stirring carefully. It will bubble up — be cautious! − Stir in the salt. − Transfer the finished caramel to a container and let it cool. Then pour into a piping bag or squeeze bottle. 3. Bake & Decorate − Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). − Take the brownie batter out of the fridge and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the center is just set but still soft. − Let cool completely before slicing. − Drizzle each piece with your homemade salted caramel. − Enjoy your rich, fudgy brownies with a heavenly touch of salted caramel! − Bon Appétit! Tips & Life Hacks for Perfect Brownies: 1. Skip the Mixer for the Dry Ingredients: When mixing the dry ingredients into the wet, use a spatula or whisk instead of a mixer. This prevents overmixing and helps keep the brownies fudgy. 2. Make the Caramel Ahead of Time: If you want to save time, make the salted caramel a day ahead. Just store it in the fridge, and it’ll be ready to drizzle on top when you bake the brownies. 3. Use Room Temperature Ingredients: For smoother batter, let your eggs, butter, and cream come to room temperature before mixing. This ensures better blending and avoids lumps. 4. Don't Overbake: To keep your brownies fudgy, check them 1-2 minutes before the recommended baking time. Insert a toothpick — it should come out with a few moist crumbs, not clean.
