Gordon Ramsay Brownie Recipe

You haven’t had brownies quite like these until you’ve tried Gordon Ramsay’s version—dense, fudgy, and unapologetically rich!
The real trick here is pulling them from the oven just before they look done—don’t wait for a clean toothpick.
I use high-quality dark chocolate and unsweetened cocoa because that’s what brings the structure and punch that basic brownies miss.
Gordon's method calls for whisking the eggs and sugar until thick and pale, and that step is not just for show—it gives the brownies their iconic texture.
Don’t skip the pinch of sea salt—it might seem small, but it sharpens everything in the mix!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups Dark Chocolate chopped
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter cubed
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 4 large Eggs
  • 3/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 cup Chocolate Chunks

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper.
  • Add the dark chocolate and butter to a heatproof bowl.
  • Melt them over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth.
  • Let it cool for a few minutes before moving on.
  • Whisk the eggs and sugar in a separate bowl until thick and pale.
  • Use a hand whisk or electric mixer—whatever you like.
  • Pour the melted chocolate-butter into the egg-sugar mixture.
  • Fold gently until just blended.
  • Sift in flour and salt, then fold carefully.
  • Add the chocolate chunks and mix until everything’s just combined.
  • Don’t overmix—really, just stop when it looks mixed!
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth out the top.
  • Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick poked in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Let the brownies cool in the pan before slicing.
