Tips and Tricks
- For an extra indulgent twist, try adding chopped nuts or swirls of caramel sauce to the batter before baking.
- Don’t overmix the batter once you’ve added the dry ingredients, as this can result in tough brownies.
- To achieve that perfect crackly top, be sure not to overbake the brownies. They should still be slightly gooey in the center when you take them out of the oven.
