Introduction
Triple Chocolate Brownies are the ultimate dessert for serious chocolate lovers. Rich, fudgy, and intensely chocolatey, these brownies combine three kinds of chocolate for deep flavor and irresistible texture in every bite.
Why They’re Called “Triple Chocolate”
This recipe uses:
- Melted chocolate in the batter
- Cocoa powder for richness
- Chocolate chips or chunks folded in
The result is a dense, bakery-style brownie with gooey pockets of melted chocolate.
