Tips:

  • To ensure your brownies have a fudgy texture, make sure you don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a cakey texture.
  • For gooey brownies, use a combination of butter and oil in the batter. The butter will add richness and flavor, while the oil will help keep the brownies moist.
  • Don't skimp on the chocolate! Use high-quality chocolate chips or bars for the best flavor. You can use a variety of chocolate types, such as semisweet, bittersweet, or dark chocolate.
  • For a crispy toffee topping, make sure you use a heavy-bottomed saucepan and stir the sugar mixture constantly. Be careful not to overcook the toffee, as it can quickly burn.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the toffee by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the toffee forms a hard ball, it is ready.
