It's official: Chick-fil-A is the best at everything—including dessert. We present this copycat Chick-fil-A brownies recipe as evidence.
Ingredients
- 10 tablespoons butter
- 1-1/4 cups sugar
- 1 cup baking cocoa
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon instant espresso powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Line an 8-in. square baking pan with parchment paper.
- Bring a few inches of water to a low simmer in the bottom of a double boiler. Add butter, sugar, baking cocoa and salt to the top of the double boiler. Stir occasionally until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm to the touch. Add vanilla and espresso powder; stir to combine.
- Remove from the heat. Add eggs, one at a time, beating until the batter appears smooth and glossy. Add flour; stir just until the flour is moistened and no dry patches remain. Fold in dark chocolate.
- Transfer batter to the prepared pan; spread into an even layer. Bake 24-26 minutes or until brownies appear set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out almost clean.
- Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice into squares to serve.

Why order just one brownie when you can make a whole pan at home? This recipe turns out brownies just like the ones at Chick-fil-A. If you like, you can use dark chocolate chunks or dark chocolate chips instead of chopped chocolate. —Lauren Habermehl, Pewaukee, Wisconsin
