These 5 Minute Chocolate Brownies are so rich and delicious… but best of all, they take no time at all to whip up! Bring on the chocolatey goodness!
If there’s one thing that I make over and over again, it’s a batch of chocolate brownies. And seriously, why not! They’re SO darn yummy!!!
But these 5 minute chocolate brownies really do take the cake (or the brownie, so to speak!). They’re made from basic ingredients that you probably already have at home… which means you can make them at anytime…. or even better, right now!!!
AND they are so quick to whip up! As in, sooooo quick! You’ll go from getting your ingredients out of the cupboard to popping your brownie into the oven in 5 minutes flat (maybe even less if you’re superwoman!).
But don’t be tricked into thinking that something so basic and easy couldn’t possibly be that good. These are crazy good! They’re everything you want in a chocolate brownie… rich, decadent and moist. Yummity-yum-yum!
Once your brownie is cooked and cooled, you might like to sift a little bit of icing sugar over the top. Or you could go totally crazy and add some frosting and chopped up chocolates!! On the other hand, you can keep it totally simple and leave it as is. Whichever you choose, just know that you’re about to be eating the most ridiculously delicious brownie!!
And hey, if you’re a brownie lover (like me!), make sure you check out my white chocolate & raspberry brownies, triple chocolate Nutella brownies and my jersey caramel brownies too…. chocolatey goodness all round!!

That’s like brownie magic! They look so rich and so delicious! It takes longer to walk to the shop than to make these babies!
Wow, these look absolutely devine! Can’t wait to try them – they are definitely on my weekend to-do list. The recipe is so simple and easy. Do you think it would still be okay to add choc chunks for an extra choc-a-holic fix?

Hi what can I use to substitute the eggs? I want to bake these for my daughters 2nd birthday and have a fair few vegans coming and would love to cater to their needs too. It’s said that silken tofu and mashed banana/Apple puree need an agent like vinegar or bicarb in the recipe which this does not have so I’m clueless any help would be appreciated thank you
Hi Sheena, I’m sorry but I don’t do a lot of egg-free baking so wouldn’t like to guess. I know that there’s lots of substitutes, but they will all definitely change the flavour and texture.
