The Best Air Fryer Fudgy Brownies Ever

The Best Air Fryer Fudgy Brownies Ever! Super chocolatey, chewy, and fudgy.

If you're looking for a delicious and easy dessert to make with your air fryer, these fudgy brownies are the answer! This recipe is straightforward, and the result is absolutely delicious. These brownies are so chocolatey and rich that you'll be tempted to eat the whole batch in one sitting.

The secret to making the best air fryer fudgy brownies is using good-quality chocolate. We recommend using at least 60% cocoa solids for the best flavor. You can also add in some chopped nuts or chocolate chips if you like for an extra crunch.

To start, chop your chocolate into chunks and melt half of it. Save the other half for later. Mix the melted chocolate with butter and sugar until it is light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla until the mixture is light in color.

Next, whisk in the reserved melted chocolate. Make sure it's not too hot, or the eggs will cook. Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt, then fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Be careful not to overmix, or the brownies will be more cake-like in texture.

Fold in the chocolate chunks and transfer the batter into a parchment paper-lined square baking dish. Place it in the air fryer and cook at 325°F for 20-25 minutes. The cooking time may vary depending on your air fryer, so keep an eye on it.

When the brownies are done, let them cool completely. This step is essential because the brownies will continue to cook as they cool down. Once they are cooled, slice them and serve them with a nice cold glass of milk.

In conclusion, these air fryer fudgy brownies are easy to make and absolutely delicious. They are perfect for a quick and indulgent dessert, and you can make them in no time with your air fryer. We hope you enjoy this recipe and give it a try!

They may also include nuts, frosting, cream cheese, chocolate chips, or other ingredients. A variation made with brown sugar and vanilla rather than chocolate in the batter is called a blond brownie or blondie. The brownie was developed in the United States at the end of the 19th century and popularized there during the first half of the 20th century.

They are typically eaten by hand, often accompanied by milk, served warm with ice cream (a la mode), topped with whipped cream, or sprinkled with powdered sugar and fudge. In North America, they are common homemade treats and they are also popular in restaurants and coffeehouses.
