These silky smooth yet fudgy egg white brownies use egg whites in place of whole eggs. It’s the perfect recipe to use up any leftover egg whites that you might have. Brownies are a classic baked good, and while not using whole eggs might seem unique, these make for the same decadent chocolate dessert that we all know and love.

½ teaspoon of baking powder
¼ teaspoon of salt
1¼ cups of sugar
½ cup of egg whites, well shaken

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Gooey Brownies Substitutions and Additions

NUTS: A delicious addition is ½ cup of sliced almonds to the flour mixture! You could also add pecans or walnuts.

CHOCOLATE CHIPS: For all of you chocolate lovers out there, you can add ½ cup of chocolate chips. Either semisweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, or even chocolate chunks to this recipe for double the chocolate and a nice texture in these cocoa brownies.

POWDERED SUGAR: A nice garnish for a little bit of added sweetness and a pretty aesthetic is to sprinkle a dusting of powdered sugar over the top of your brownies before serving them.

STEP ONE: Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.

OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS

If you are separating the eggs yourself, the easiest way to separate egg whites from egg yolks is to crack the egg into your hand over a small bowl. Hold the yolk in your hand while letting the white run through your fingers.

STEP THREE: Add egg mixture to dry ingredients, stirring just until blended.

STEP FOUR: Pour into an 8-inch square baking pan sprayed with cooking spray or lined with parchment paper.

PRO TIP:

Lining the pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil will allow you to lift the entire baked brownies out of the pan for easier cutting once cooled. You can also grease the pan instead if you would prefer.

STEP FIVE: Bake at 350°F for 20 to 25 minutes or until firm to the touch. Do not overbake!

PRO TIP:

Make sure not to overbake these. You want the insides to be slightly gooey and the outsides firm.

STEP SIX: Cool and cut into squares.

PRO TIP:

It is essential that the brownies are completely cooled before slicing. Brownies will crumble if they are too warm when cut.

A fudgy brownie is perfect served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, and hot fudge sauce on top.

Gooey Brownie Recipe Frequently Asked Questions

Should I use sweetened or unsweetened cocoa powder in this recipe?

You can use unsweetened cocoa powder, and there is plenty of sweetness from the rest of the ingredients.

What makes brownies gooey?

A gooey brownie has more butter and chocolate than flour, which gives it a richer flavor and a softer texture. More eggs also make a brownie gooey, as they add moisture and help to bind the ingredients together.

How do you make gooey brownies chewy?

Chewier brownies tend to have an additional egg in the ingredients as well as a little bit more flour. This gives them a more elastic “bite” to them.

Can these brownies be frozen?

They can be frozen for up to three months stored in an airtight container.

What can I do with the extra egg yolk leftover from this recipe?

You can keep them in the fridge in an airtight container with a bit of water so they don’t dry out and then use them the next time you make scrambled eggs.
