Key Ingredients

Full recipe and ingredients are in the recipe card below. Feel free to scroll through this section to view certain key ingredients we’re using!

Baking powder: This is my go-to baking powder. A small amount of leavening agent that helps the brownies rise properly in the oven.

Chocolate: I like to use semi-sweet chocolate chips. Chocolate chunks or chopped chocolate works as well. Make sure they’re fresh as we’ll be needing to melt them for this recipe.

Eggs: Whisking the eggs prior to adding them into the batter adds air into them, which helps crate that crinkle top that everyone loves.

Instant Coffee: This is one of my secret ingredients I enjoy adding into brownies as it enhances the chocolate flavour. It is technically optional, but I do recommend you use it! Instant coffee does not make the brownies taste like coffee, but solely adds richness to the brownies! You may also use ground up coffee or espresso powder.

Kinder Bueno For this recipe I used 6 full regular sized Kinder Bueno Bars. 2.5 (5 sticks) were used for the inside, and the rest was chopped and sprinkled on top.

Ingredient Swaps

As with nearly all recipes, you may swap some of the ingredients and create different variations. Let’s get creative!

• While semi-sweet chocolate chips are my go-to, you may also use milk, dark, or white chocolate chips. Keep in mind it will be very sweet if you use milk or white chocolate. Feel free to also use chopped chocolate if you have some bars lying around!

• Substitute Kinder Bueno for another one of your favourite chocolate bars like Snickers or Caramilk or omit it completely for a simple fudgy brownie recipe.

• Instant coffee may be swapped for regular coffee or espresso powder, or omitted completely.

• White granulated sugar is mainly used for sweetening. The bond between sugar and water locks in moisture so the brownies remains soft and moist. Substitute for light or dark brown sugar.

Step by Step Instructions

Here is how to make and bake these Kinder Bueno Brownies. You will need an 8×8 square pan lined with parchment paper, a large mixing bowl, a spatula, and a whisk.

Step 1 – Prep. Line a 9×9 square pan with foil or parchment paper and lightly grease with butter or oil.

Step 2 - Melt chocolate and butter. Into a bowl, add melted butter that is still hot and chocolate chips. Stir until the chocolate chips and butter and completely combined.

Step 3 - Whisk sugar and eggs. Add in white sugar and continue whisking. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until light bubbles start to form on the top. This takes about 30 seconds.

Step 4 - Add wet ingredients. Add the beaten eggs, vanilla extract, and instant coffee into the main bowl of ingredients and keep on whisking.

Step 5 - Mix in dry ingredients. Toss in the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder and salt and fold until just combined. The batter should be more on the runny side.

Step 6 - Layer. Pour half of the brownie batter into your prepared pan. Line the Kinder Bueno's on top. Then add remaining batter and spread out evenly. Sprinkle crushed Kinder Bueno's on top. See photos for reference.

Step 7 - Bake the brownies. Bake at 350°F/175°C until a toothpick inserted comes out moist. It should not be runny, but also not completely dry or else the brownies have been overcooked. Enjoy!
