TESTING BROWNIES
To test a cake, insert a skewer in the centre away from any cracks or fruit. If cooked, it will withdraw clean or with moist crumbs attached or as specified in the recipe.
BASIC BROWNIES

PREP+ COOK TIME/HOUR 5 MINUTES (+COOLING)
We retested a number of classic recipes, combining elements to create a 'super' brownie, with fudginess, sweetness and the signature shiney top.
1 Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan forced. Grease a deep 20cm square cake pan; line base and sides with baking paper.
2 Melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Add sugars and stir until dissolved. Remove from heat; cool for 10 minutes. Stir combined eggs and vanilla into butter mixture, then combined sifted flour, cocoa powder and salt. Stir in the chopped chocolate. Spread mixture into pan.
3 Bake for 45 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out with moist crumbs attached (see Cooking time, below, for how varying the cooking time will create a different delicious result).
4 Leave brownie in pan to cool before cutting into squares to serve.
CAKEY OR FUDGY?
Choose one of these cooking times to produce either a cakey, fudgy or gooey (super-fudgy) result.
FUDGY: 45 MINUTES
This is the Test Kitchen's preferred brownie style, which has a fudgy centre between a small shallow cakey layer. Test the brownie with a skewer; it should withdraw with moist crumbs attached.
CAKEY: 50 MINUTES
Pick this time if you prefer a cakey, easy-to-cut brownie syle. Test the brownie with a skewer; it should withdraw clean.
GOOEY: 40-42 MINUTES
