Fudgy Skillet Walnut Brownies 🍫

Fudgy Skillet Walnut Brownies 🍫

There’s something magical about baking brownies in a skillet. Maybe it’s the way the edges get perfectly chewy while the center stays soft and fudgy. Or maybe it’s how rustic and comforting it feels—just slice it up right in the pan and pass it around.

This brownie recipe is rich, not too sweet, packed with toasted walnuts, and comes together with just a few ingredients. The best part? It gets even better the next day after a rest in the fridge. If you love that deep chocolate flavor and chewy texture, this one’s for you.

🍫 Ingredients

• 4 oz BAKER'S Unsweetened Chocolate, chopped

• 3/4 cup butter, melted

• 1 2/3 cup white sugar

• 3 eggs

• 1 tbsp vanilla extract (assuming this was intended; 1 cup vanilla sounds like a typo)

• 1 cup all-purpose flour

• 2 cups coarsely chopped walnuts

🥄 Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Melt chocolate and butter together in a large microwave-safe bowl. Heat in short bursts (30 seconds at a time), stirring between each, until smooth and fully melted.

3. Add sugar to the melted chocolate mixture and whisk well until combined.

4. Blend in eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla. Stir in the flour until just combined.

5. Fold in the walnuts until evenly distributed.

6. Prepare your skillet – Spread a layer of butter inside a medium-sized cast iron skillet (8–10 inch works well). Cut a square of parchment paper roughly to the size of the skillet, press it into the bottom, and scrunch the edges around the sides. This makes removing the brownie easy later on.

7. Pour the batter into the skillet and spread it out evenly with a spatula.

8. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. You don’t want a clean toothpick—those crumbs mean a chewy brownie!

9. Let it rest – Using oven gloves, carefully flip the brownie out onto a plate. Let it cool for 30–40 minutes (longer if you can wait). The texture gets even better after refrigerating overnight.

📝 Tips

• Want extra gooeyness? Add chocolate chunks or chips into the batter.

• This is a great make-ahead dessert. Just slice and serve cold, or warm up pieces in the microwave for 10 seconds.

• Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a pinch of sea salt on top—trust me.
