Description
Easy no-bake chocolate covered brownies are a rich and fudgy dessert that requires no baking. These bars are coated in a smooth chocolate layer and finished with a sprinkle of sea salt for a perfect sweet-and-salty treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate), divided
- 1 tbsp coconut oil (or vegetable oil)
- Flaky sea salt (optional)
- Extra chocolate drizzle (optional)
Instructions
- Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper, leaving a little overhang for easy lifting.
- In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Stir in sweetened condensed milk and cocoa powder until smooth. Remove from heat and mix in vanilla and salt.
- Stir in graham cracker crumbs until thick and fully combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into the prepared pan and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Lift out and cut into 12 bars (or 16 smaller bars). Place bars on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 10–15 minutes to firm up before dipping.
- Melt 10 oz chocolate with coconut oil in the microwave in 20–30 second bursts, stirring until smooth.
- Coat each bar in chocolate and set back on parchment.
- Melt the remaining 2 oz chocolate and drizzle over the top. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
- Chill for 20–30 minutes until the chocolate is fully firm. Store chilled for best texture.
Notes
- Pack the brownie mixture tightly for clean slices.
- Use forks to lift and tap off excess chocolate when dipping.
- Store in the refrigerator for best texture.
