Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Batter
- 2 pieces Eggs (Essential for binding and moisture)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt (Enhances flavor, kosher salt recommended)
- 1 cup Sugar (Consider brown sugar for deeper flavor)
- 1 tablespoon Pure Vanilla Extract (Use vanilla bean as a substitute)
- 0.5 cup Butter (Coconut oil for dairy-free option)
- 3 ounces Unsweetened Baking Chocolate, chopped (Key for the chocolate flavor)
- 0.5 cup All-Purpose Flour (Substitute with gluten-free flour if needed)
Dipping and Garnish
- 12 ounces Semi-sweet or Dark Chocolate, chopped (Perfect for dipping)
- Sea Salt for Sprinkling (Maldon Sea Salt Flakes recommended)
Instructions
- Prepare the Brownie Batter: In a heat-safe bowl, melt the unsweetened baking chocolate and butter together over a double boiler or in short bursts in the microwave. Stir until smooth, then let cool slightly before adding the eggs one at a time, stirring well after each addition. Mix in sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until combined. Gradually fold in the flour until just incorporated.
- Shape the Brownie Fries: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the brownie batter evenly into a rectangular shape about 1-inch thick. Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs. Allow to cool slightly, then cut into thin fry-shaped pieces.
- Melt the Dipping Chocolate: While the fries cool, melt the semi-sweet or dark chocolate in a double boiler or microwave, stirring until glossy and smooth for dipping.
- Dip and Garnish: Dip each brownie fry halfway into the melted chocolate, then place on parchment paper to set. Before the chocolate sets completely, sprinkle with sea salt flakes for a perfect sweet-salty contrast.
- Serve and Enjoy: Arrange the chocolate truffle fries on a platter and serve immediately for the ultimate indulgent treat.
Notes
- Use brown sugar instead of white sugar for a deeper, caramel-like flavor.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute butter with coconut oil and use dairy-free chocolate.
- Make sure not to overbake the brownies to keep the fries fudgy rather than dry.
- Store leftover brownie fries in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for 4 days.
- These truffle fries are best enjoyed fresh, but you can gently rewarm them before serving.
