Ghirardelli Brownie Mix Recipe
If you love brownies, you will love this Ghirardelli Brownie Mix Recipe. It is rich, fudgy and super easy to make. The best part is that the mix already has deep chocolate flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 box Ghirardelli brownie mix
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional: 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). This helps brownies bake evenly and stay moist.
Prepare the Pan
- Grease your baking pan or line it with parchment paper. This helps brownies release easily.
Mix Wet Ingredients
- In a bowl, whisk oil, eggs, water and vanilla until smooth and combined.
Add Brownie Mix
- Add the Ghirardelli brownie mix to the bowl. Stir gently until no dry bits remain.
Add Chocolate Chips
- If using, fold in chocolate chips. They add extra gooey chocolate bites inside.
Pour Batter into Pan
- Pour batter into the prepared pan. Spread evenly with a spatula for even baking.
Bake the Brownies
- Bake for about 35 minutes. Check by inserting a toothpick; it should come out with a few crumbs.
Cool Before Cutting
- Let brownies cool completely. This helps them set and cut cleanly.
Cut into Squares
- Use a sharp knife to cut brownies into squares. Clean the knife between cuts.
Serve and Enjoy
- Serve brownies warm or at room temperature. Add ice cream if you want extra sweetness.
Notes
- For extra fudgy brownies, bake 2–3 minutes less.
- For cakier brownies, bake 3–5 minutes more.
- Add chopped nuts for crunch.
- Mix in peanut butter chips for a fun twist.
- Swirl caramel or peanut butter on top before baking.
