Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar (packed)
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (optional, such as walnuts or pecans)
Instructions
Grease an 8x8-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.
Stir in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and milk. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil and stir continuously for 1-2 minutes until the sugar is dissolved.
Reduce the heat to low and sift in the unsweetened cocoa powder and salt. Stir until smooth and well combined.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the all-purpose flour to the saucepan, stirring until the mixture forms a thick, smooth batter.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped nuts, if using.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly using a spatula.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs.
Allow the fudgies to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares.
Serve and enjoy your delicious, homemade saucepan fudgies!
