Top 10 List: Favorite Brownie Recipes
A collection of the best brownie recipes on Brown Eyed Baker – plain, nutty, salty, frosted – favorite brownies for everyone!
[We continue to update the "Top 10″ series of posts with brownies!]
This is quite possibly one of my favorite top 10 lists… Brownies!! They are dense, fudgy, packed full of chocolate, and infinitely customizable depending on your favorite flavors. There are peanut butter brownies, salted caramel, cheesecake, frosted, frozen… you name it, and I guarantee a brownie has been made with it.
Below is an updated list of my 10 favorite brownie recipes… Enjoy!
Top 10 List: Best Brownie Recipes on BEB
1. Baked Brownie
This is “THE” Baked Brownie – the one that has been all the rage for years, hailing from the Baked cookbook, and for good reason – it bakes up perfectly dense and fudge-like with that glorious crackly top.
2. Better-Than-Box-Mix Brownies
This is my go-to recipe when I want a perfect, traditional brownie. It’s also the one I turn to as a base for creating some of those epic brownie recipes (see the buckeye brownies, below).
3. Buckeye Brownies
One of my all-time favorite brownie recipes, featuring the best flavor combo in the world – chocolate and peanut butter! I used my better-than-box-mix brownies, a buckeye-like filling, and topped it with a chocolate/peanut butter ganache. Heaven.
4. Chocolate Fudge Brownies with Chocolate Buttercream Frosting
Because sometimes you just need a little something MORE when it comes to brownies, so you add frosting (and sprinkles!).

5. Cream Cheese Brownies
A combination of my love for cheesecake and my love for chocolate are these amazing cream cheese brownies. Perfect little cream cheese swirls running throughout the brownies!
6. Frozen Brownie Sundae
I still remember making this the weekend that we moved four years ago, and everyone agreed that having it in the freezer was pretty much the best thing ever.
7. Marshmallow Crunch Brownie Bars
One of my first ventures in the world of crazy epic brownie concoctions, and still one of my favorites to this day. They get rave reviews wherever I take them.
8. Peanut Butter Cup Crunch Brownie Bars
This is the peanut butter cup version of the marshmallow brownies above, and if you’re a chocolate and peanut butter fanatic like me, you’ll go nuts over these!
9. Outrageous Brownies
This is the famous recipe from Ina Garten, complete with being baked in a half sheet pan, this is the brownie recipe to make if you need to feed a crowd (or if you love brownies and want to make sure you don’t run out!).
10. Sweet and Salty Brownies
The Baked brownie (see #1 above) with a layer of salted caramel sauce baked right into the middle, plus a little extra fleur de sel for good measure. These are absolutely phenomenal brownies.
What's your favorite brownie recipe??
I love love love the Baked Brownie – my absolute favorite, and your photo is amazingly luscious!
I have tried a number of these brownies…such a fabulous list of favorites! I recently have made a Kahlua and a caramel brownie that I’d add to my top 10….and I spied a few new ones of yours to bake. Thanks!
Yumm-O i would never say no to a brownie :D haha
Ahhh! These look so good! Desserts are definitely my weak spot. Diet ruined once again hahaha! Thanks :)
The Baked brownie is my favorite too, thanks to you! I never would have made them if not for your blog. They get rave reviews every time I make them :)
I made the Peanut Butter Cup Crunch Brownies for a party last weekend and they were a huge hit. I think I might have to try the carmel ones next!
Spelling correction for myself … caramel :)
My favorite brownies are these grasshopper brownies: http://www.thewannabechef.net/2011/01/26/grasshopper-brownies/
BUT I’m sure your peanut butter brownies would give them a run for their money if I tried them. The only thing I love more than chocolate and mint is chocolate and peanut butter.
Oh man. these all look SO SO SO good. ahhh this post is dangerous!
I really need to try those salted caramel brownies, holy yum. My favorite right now are the nutella crunch brownies I just made. The fudgier the better!
They all look divine!
Ohhhhh my goodness. MUST. MAKE. BROWNIES. Those mint ones looks so unbelievably good! Thanks for the top ten!!!
I dont know which one I’d make first they all look so good!
Wow! Can I just have them all? Oh and glass of milk is probably in order. Yummy!!
The chocolate mint brownies look phenomenal!! I’m planning on making some kind of brownie with my surplus of fresh mint today, but now I kind of just want to chow down on Andes chocolate :)
I am in heaven!
Thanks for the Monday morning inspiration!
Time to hunt down some chocolate:)
I love brownies with ice cream on top. I have been wanting to try your salted caramel brownies forever! My favorite brownies right now are cheesecake brownies.
Brownies are my weakness! Thank you for this!
I just love brownies! Have you ever tried the browned butter brownie recipe from Bon Appetit? I think they are my new favorite!
What this list is telling me is that I need to buy the Baked cookbook as soon as I can!
I’m so overwhelmed – which recipe do I try first?!
I love chocolate cookie dough brownies!
Uhmm YUM! I’ll try to not drool while going back up and staring at those pics. I think the first two are totally calling for me to make them asap!
Now that is a post full of chocolate goodness. Those pb crunch brownies look incredible.
What a great list of beautiful brownies!! Not sure which I’d try first!!
I made the Peanut Butter Cup Crunch Brownies yesterday for Father’s Day and they were a HUGE hit with my husband! He is a PB/Chocolate freak and they were right up his alley. Really easy to make too!
Wow – looks amazing! How will I explain a pan of these on a healthy cooking website?
When such tempting brownies are grouped together like this it is very difficult to choose a favourite or which one to bake first. Honestly, really would love to try them all!
So many of these look good! I can’t wait to try the Baked brownie.
Those salted caramel brownies really caught my eye today! Great round-up!
All of these look too good. Mmmm brownies…
Oh man this post is killing me! I will take 1 of each please! Excuse me for a minute while I get myself a tissue to wipe the drool off my chin. YUM!!!
