Chocoholics will love these Copycat Starbucks Double Chocolate Brownies. Nothing but Chocolate! My King Kong Brownies are just as good as these chocolate brownies.
Brownies are usually pretty easy to make and this chocolate brownies recipe is no different. A handful of simple ingredients you most likely already have on-hand and about 45 minutes in the oven.
💭 Recipe Tip
Getting the toothpick to come out clean might be a little challenging given the number of chocolate chips inside the brownie batter. I suggest trying in several locations across the brownies.
Probably the hardest part will be waiting 2 hours for the brownies to cool down before eating them! You could probably put them in the refrigerator to speed things along.
It's important to let them cool down completely or they will crumble when you try to cut them. Resist the temptation and wait till they have cooled down!
💭 Ingredient Substitution
The brownies you get from Starbucks actually have chocolate chunks in them instead of chocolate chips. They are called "Double Chocolate Chunk Brownies". I figured most do not have chocolate chunks readily available so I used chocolate chips instead. If you have chocolate chunks on-hand, by all means, go for it!
I realize that Starbucks is known for its gourmet coffee but they also offer great food. Check out my other Copycat Recipes.

The double chocolate brownies are so moist and delicious, especially if you are a chocolate lover. There were a couple left the next day and they were still moist. A 5 star for me.
