When it comes to brownies, there are two camps to choose from: fudgy and cakey. For years, the debate over which is superior has raged, with both sides vehemently defending their preference.
Fudgy brownies have a rich chocolate flavour and are dense and moist. They’re often made with more chocolate than flour and have an irresistible gooey texture. Cakey brownies, on the other hand, have a lighter, airier texture and a cake-like texture. They have a fluffier texture because they contain less chocolate and more flour.
Personal preference ultimately determines whether to make fudgy or cakey brownies. There’s a brownie for everyone, whether you prefer a dense, chocolatey treat or a lighter, fluffier dessert.
