White Chocolate Brownies
Introduction
White Chocolate Brownies are a revelation for dessert lovers—offering a luxurious, buttery sweetness that perfectly balances the dense texture we crave in a classic brownie. Unlike their darker cousins, these brownies highlight the creamy vanilla notes of white chocolate, creating a sophisticated treat that’s both visually striking and incredibly satisfying.
Perfect for celebrations, office parties, or a weekend sweet tooth fix, this recipe is easy to master and always impresses a crowd with its elegance and irresistible flavor.
What Makes White Chocolate Brownies Irresistible
These brownies stand out because they pair the familiar fudgy chew of your favorite brownie with the mellow, melt-in-your-mouth appeal of white chocolate. Flecks of golden crust and gooey centers promise a bite that’s both rich and delicately sweet—an ideal twist when you want something special beyond the usual chocolate.
This recipe is also endlessly adaptable: add berries, nuts, or a swirl of raspberry jam to customize it to your taste.
Prepping for Success: Tools That Help
For pristine results, lining your baking dish with a sheet of Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll ensures effortless brownie removal and an even bake. Measuring your ingredients precisely is crucial for perfect texture; a Amazon Basics Digital Kitchen Scale with LCD Display delivers accuracy you can trust. When melting the white chocolate, using a sturdy Bamboo Cutting Boards for Kitchen makes prep neat and safe.
The Key to Perfectly Soft and Chewy White Chocolate Brownies
Start by gently melting the white chocolate with butter over low heat to marry their flavors, taking care not to overheat. Whisk your eggs and sugar separately for a creamy texture before folding in the chocolate mixture. This method preserves the airiness for beautifully soft, chewy brownies.
Pro tip: Don’t overmix once the flour goes in—mix until just combined to avoid a tough, cakey result.
Serving, Storing & Gifting Ideas
Let brownies cool completely before slicing to achieve those clean, bakery-worthy squares. A sharp knife works well, but a silicone spatula will help lift pieces out gently for a perfect presentation.
To transport or gift these treats, pack them in Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers to keep them fresh for days, or serve them right from the tray for informal gatherings. Pair each square with coffee or a glass of milk for a satisfying dessert experience.

Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8-inch square baking pan with Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
- In a heatproof bowl set over simmering water (or microwaved in short bursts), melt the white chocolate and unsalted butter together, stirring until smooth. Transfer to a mixing bowl and let cool for 2–3 minutes.
- With an Amazon Basics Digital Kitchen Scale with LCD Display, measure your flour and sugar for best results. Whisk sugar into the cooled chocolate mixture until blended. Beat in eggs, one at a time, followed by vanilla extract.
- Use a Bamboo Cutting Boards for Kitchen to chop any optional mix-ins.
- Fold in the flour and salt just until incorporated. If using nuts or fruit, fold them in now. Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 22–26 minutes. The edges should look set and lightly golden, while the center remains a little fudgy (a toothpick should come out with moist crumbs).
- Cool completely in pan. Lift out using parchment, then cut into squares. Store leftovers in Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers for up to 4 days.
