Fudgy Walnut Brownie

This one is my family’s favourite. I always wanted that fudginess in my brownies and took me a while to crack the perfect combination of ingredients. It makes for a great accompaniment with coffee.

Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Vegetable Oil
  • 1.5 Cup Sugar
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 1 Tsp Coffee
  • 1 Tsp Water
  • 1 Cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/4 Cup Cocoa Powder
  • 1 Tsp Baking Powder

Preparation

Prep: 10 minutes
Cooking: 40 minutes

  1. For the brownie mixture, take a bowl and add oil and sugar. Whisk well for 2-3 minutes.
  2. For the brownie mixture, take a bowl and add oil and sugar. Whisk well for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Next, add 2 large eggs and give a good whisk until the mixture gets lighter. This takes 6-7 minutes.
  4. Sift the dry ingredients – all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and transfer to the wet mixture. Give a good mix to this brownie batter. 
  5. Then add walnuts and give a quick mix.
  6. Now take a brownie mould, place a parchment paper and grease it. Transfer the brownie batter to this mould.
  7. Place this mould in a 10-minute pre-heated kadhai with salt/sand and bake for another 40 minutes (for the oven, preheat at 160 degrees for 10 minutes and bake for 30 minutes at 160 degrees).
  8. After 40 minutes, prick a toothpick on the brownie. If it comes out clean, it’s ready. Cool off and serve.

I come from a liberal Maharashtrian family where we discuss everything at the dinner table and our lives revolve around food. I started taking cooking lessons from my mom as a teenager but was not so fond of it. Slowly with time, my love for cooking grew fonder when I started getting appreciated for my cooking skills by family and friends. From making Kande Pohe for breakfast to making Cajun Spiced Potatoes for a cocktail party at home, they all have been a part of my journey. Cooking is like meditation to me; it relaxes my mind and soul. It truly releases some dopamine. But with my round the clock job as a digital marketer, I hardly had any time for regular kitchen visits. The lockdown period gave me more time to indulge in cooking and try new recipes. It has been a terrific journey so far.
