The Difference Between Fudgy vs Cakey vs Chewy Brownies #baking #brownie

I like how most sweets/pastries try to be light, airy, and fluffy, whereas brownies just try to be as dense as possible

Fudgy and chewy is where it's AT.

Pro tips for better box brownies: 1. replace each egg the recipe calls for with two egg yolks (1 egg=2 yolks) 2. Replace the water 1:1 with milk. 3. When you stir it, be careful not to overstir. The batter should not be smooth when you pour it in. Rather it should still be kind of clumpy. This adds variety to the brownies. 4. Use parchment paper to keep the brownies from sticking 5. Cook it at about 25 degrees lower than what it says for a longer time. Just keep an eye on it. You can do any one of these five steps on their own or do all five of them together. It should work with basically all box brownie mixes, and a lot of homemade recipes too.

The extra yolks transmogrified into chocolate chips, truly magical

Omg he differentiates fudgy and chewy as separate. Too smart 😅

I will never forget the time I made some brownies for my sons father's family reunion... and when his uncle went to cut into it with a butter knife, then a steak knife and follow it up with a butchers knife... only for me to realize I had forgotten to put the eggs 🤦🏾‍♀️ they were hard as a brick 😂😂😂

I love fudgy brownies. My favorite are Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge brownies.

I knew I wasn't crazy. There really is a difference between fudgy and chewy and what I actually love more are chewy brownies

If I want a cakey texture, I eat cake. For a chewy, fudgy treat, I want a brownie.

This is the most helpful video ever thank you so much! My brownies are so dry but i added more eggs today and they are AMAZING

the cakey one is literally the EXACT brownie they sell at my school

It's not just eggs that greatly afftect texture. The type of sugar and the way you incorporate it into the brownies also matters a ton.

Yo let's get that brownie recipe

I can tell just from looking at those that the fudgy one is God tier 🤤

This helps so much

Also sugar! The difference between white and brown sugar in brownies and cookies is so important to the texture too

THANK YOU for not only recognizing that chewy and fudgy brownies are different, but also telling us how to get a chewier texture when baking brownies. chewy brownies are my favorite but i have had one hell of a time trying to find a recipe or box mix that makes chewy brownies instead of fudgy

If you want more brownie then add as many eggs as you can to ensure your brownie rises taller than the oven, therefore you can have infinite brownie
