Not just the Best Brownies, but the Best Thermomix Brownies everrrrr, well, I do have the conventional method as well if you don’t own a Thermomix. You see a lot of “Best ever” “Absolute Best” and other “BEST” something recipes on the internet. But these are really awesome.
These soft, chewy chocolate brownies were a huge hit in our cafe. This post has had more views than any other post I’ve ever written. I mean, ever since I started my blog.
What is a Brownie?
Of course, you have to think of brownies the same way as I do. We all get our Idea of brownies from our past experiences and mine was one of dense, gooey, rich chocolate. So, if yours is the same, this is going to be your recipe too. Of course, there are others I like, but this is the best.
Sometimes I fancysomething that’s a little cakier, and I have another recipe for that. Although I don’tmake that as much, it has its place. I’ve translated this patisserie recipe for soft gooey brownies to Thermomix speak which makes them a doddle to make at home. Read all the instructions and tips before you start, and you’ll love them too.
What should you know about Brownies?
- If you want them to taste their best, please use good quality couverturechocolate. I only use Callebaut in the cooking school. I quite often replace the white chips with Callebaut velvet chips. Callebaut Velvet is a little less sweet with a hint of vanilla. Sounds delicious, doesn’tit? Or you can replace the white chocolate with walnuts or other nuts.
- Don’t overbake them.
- Don’t wait for the centre to set before you remove them from the oven; you’ll end up overbaking the outside edges. If you have a temperature probe, use it; place it in the centre of your brownie, and make sure your probe doesn’t hit the bottom of the pan. Once the temp reaches 85°C, it’s done. Because of the amount of chocolate and other melty goodies, your centre will set once it reaches room temp.
- Don’t store your brownies in the fridge, or the sugars will crystallise, and they’ll just taste blaa.
- Pop them in a sealed container and leave them on the bench (or pantry), and all your guests will eat them. You know the old prayer, “please god, if you can’t make me thin, make all my friends fat”. Here’s an opportunity
Best Thermomix Brownies Ever!
The time it takes for these brownies to bake will depend on the size of the tin you’ve used. I use a tin of around 21-cm square, which takes about 25 minutes in my cooking school oven. A little Pastry Chef tip for baking brownies is, to use a probe thermometer and bake until the centre reaches 85°c. That’s true for most cakes and slices.
Don’t worry that the centre is still quite soft. It will firm up when it cools. It’s all about the chocolate. Don’t bake it till the centre is firm, or it will be way overcooked on the edges. 😉

For the cake
Set oven to 170 C
Chop the white chocolate into medium size chunks and set aside or, if you're using Callebaut Callets you can just leave them as they are, they not only taste amazing, but they're the perfect size for chunks.
Melt the chocolate and butter 60°c/4 mins/sp 1-2.
Add in the sugar and combine, speed 5 for 5 sec
Add in the eggs, mix through on speed 5 for 5 sec
Add in the dry ingredients and mix for 5 seconds/speed 5 scrape down the sides
And finally the chopped white chocolate reverse speed +5 until evenly combined
Pour into tins and bake until just cooked. temp probe 85°c
The slice will seem very soft in the centre, but it will set once it cools.
Notes
Don’t over bake them, the centre will set up when they cool.
Don’t put these brownies in the fridge. They’ll be perfectly fine stored in a container and left in the pantry for 4 to 5 days.
The cold air in the fridge will crystallise the sugar, and they won’t keep their soft gooey texture.
