How to make vegan brownies gooey and fudgy at the same time – Best Tips & Tricks

1. Pay careful attention to the cooking time.

This is one of the most important things to remember when making this easy vegan chocolate brownies recipe.

If you don’t cook them enough, they will come out soft, almost soggy, similar to a badly cooked lava cake. And if you cook them too much, they will get spongy. Not what we’re aiming for.

When it comes to vegan chocolate brownies you want them perfectly balanced. You need to feel the gooey texture first, then the chewy fudge must come in and balance everything, and then the whole mix should deliciously melt into your mouth.

That’s the perfect vegan chocolate brownie and we shouldn’t settle for anything less.

And for that, you need to keep an eye on them while they’re cooking. If the top starts to get too brown, you should cover the tin loosely with baking paper.

It’s worth noting here that the pecans can get roasted very fast so that should be a good indicator of when you need to cover the vegan chocolate brownies.

Another thing to remember is that after you take it out of the oven, it will harden slightly while cooling.

Now that you know how to make vegan brownies gooey and fudgy at the same time, let’s see how to serve them.

2. How to serve vegan chocolate brownies

These vegan Chocolate brownies are best served slightly warm because that’s when their texture is perfect. That’s when they are gooey in the middle and fudgy on the sides.

You can keep them in the fridge for up to 5 days or on the countertop, in an airtight container, for up to 3 days. But keep in mind that they will harden when refrigerated and they will turn fudgy.

They will still be super delicious but if you like them gooey make sure you gobble them up while they’re still warm.

Well, I don’t think that’s going to be a problem especially if you have guests over but it’s worth mentioning.

And if you want to make them even better, here’s a tip.

Serve each brownie with a scoop or two of your favorite ice cream. Caramel and pralines is the one that I like most, so I think this combo is insane, probably one of the best desserts ever.

3. Adjust this easy vegan brownies recipe to your taste

These tips are for the creative foodies, who just can help themselves from bringing their own touch to every recipe they make.

The ingredients in this easy vegan brownies recipe are quite simple and I honestly wouldn’t change a thing. But here are a few that can be replaced without altering the taste and texture.

  1. You can replace the coconut milk with any kind of milk you want.
  2. Instead of coconut sugar, you can go for brown sugar.
  3. You can change the pecans with your favorite nuts like walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds, cashew, or macadamia.
  4. Or, you can replace the nuts with dried fruits, like cherries.
  5. You can use vegetable oil instead of coconut oil.

But remember… If you want to replace the ingredients in any recipe, I think you should only do it if you are experienced in cooking. Otherwise, it may be best to stick to it because you can easily mess everything up.

And now, the last trick for this easy vegan chocolate brownies recipe is…

4. Which chocolate is best for making easy vegan brownies

This is very important if you want to make the best vegan brownies recipe.

I used chocolate chips with a minimum of 45% cocoa and no milk. Really important if you want to keep it vegan.

These are perfect for baking and they form a chewy texture which remains like that even after the brownies harden in the fridge.

As I said above, these easy vegan chocolate brownies will lose that gooeyness once you keep them in the fridge, but they will still be chewy if the chocolate is good.

When you pick the chocolate, make sure it’s made with raw cocoa powderand search for organic, fair trade and non-GMO certified.
