Ingredients

Scale

Chocolate Mixture

  • 8 oz (226 g) high quality white chocolate bars, chopped (Lindt or Ghirardelli bars)
  • 3/4 cup (168 g) unsalted butter, chopped into small cubes

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 1/4 cups (250 g) granulated white sugar
  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups (219 g) all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • 3/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Lightly grease a 9×9 inch baking pan and either grease or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of the brownies.
  2. Melt chocolate and butter: In a double boiler over medium-low heat, melt the unsalted butter and chopped white chocolate together. Stir continuously to ensure the mixture melts evenly and does not burn. Remove from heat once fully melted and smooth.
  3. Mix eggs, sugar, and vanilla: In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, egg yolks, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract together until the mixture is pale and smooth. Using a hand mixer on high speed can expedite this process.
  4. Combine chocolate mixture: Pour the melted white chocolate and butter mixture into the egg mixture. Whisk until fully combined and smooth.
  5. Fold in dry ingredients: Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the all-purpose flour and salt into the wet ingredients. Mix just until combined to avoid overworking the batter, which helps keep the brownies tender.
  6. Prepare to bake: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared 9×9 inch pan. Use a mini offset spatula to evenly smooth the top of the batter for uniform baking.
  7. Bake: Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 29 to 33 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs but not wet batter.
  8. Cool and serve: Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cool, loosen the edges with a butter knife and invert onto a cutting board. Cut into 16 equal squares and serve.

Notes

  • For easier removal, line the baking pan with parchment paper extending over edges before greasing.
  • Use high quality white chocolate bars like Lindt or Ghirardelli for best flavor and texture.
  • Avoid overmixing the batter once the flour is added to prevent tough brownies.
  • Check the brownies starting at 29 minutes to prevent overbaking; white chocolate brownies can dry out quickly.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
