These marvellous squares of rich chocolatey goodness came about with absolutely no planning.

Always the best way, don’t you think? Who needs plans?

With short notice to bake something dairy free, my mind boggled. So many options, but what do make for maximum taste, texture and show-off power?? The answer, as it should always be, was brownies.

Dense, rich, fudgey, dairy free triple chocolate brownies. Loaded with cocoa, dark chocolate and melting pockets of chocolate chips. A perfect crackly top just barely covering the soft, velvet centre of these bold and beautiful brownies. Excuse me while I wipe the drool from my keyboard.

This recipe was based on my favourite ever brownie recipe – last year’s Quadruple Chocolate Brownies – and the result as always, did not disappoint! I simply swapped the butter out for coconut oil, which makes the brownies lighter in your mouth, and replaced all the milk chocolate with dark chocolate, most of which is naturally dairy free if it’s over 70% cocoa. I’m so delighted with how they’ve turned out, and I really hope you’ll try them, even if you don’t follow a non-dairy diet!

True to form, this recipe is easy and even though they take a little while to bake, there’s very little effort on your part. Perfect, huh?

You’ll need to start by preheating your oven and greasing and lining a tin to bake the brownies in. I use great disposable ones from Lakeland!

Melt some dairy free dark chocolate (most 70% dark chocolate is naturally dairy free!) and either some coconut oil or dairy free butter/margarine together gently in a heatproof bowl either in the microwave or over a pan of simmering water until smooth.

While the chocolate and butter melt, weigh your flour and cocoa powder into a small bowl and set aside.

In a separate large bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg yolk, sugar, vanilla and salt until just combined.

Once melted and not too hot, pour the melted chocolate mixture into the bowl of egg mixture and whisk to incorporate.

Tip in the flour and cocoa mixture, and a good handful or two of dairy free chocolate chips and gently fold together with a spoon or spatula until just combined. I thoroughly recommend tasting the mixture at this point, it’s soooooooo good.

Pour the gorgeously thick chocolatey brownie batter into the prepared tin and bake until the brownies are no longer wobbly and have a nice shiny, crackled top.

Allow to cool completely before slicing if you can! I completely understand that the wait for these dairy free triple chocolate brownies is an excruciating one, but slicing them warm can just become a gooey mess!

  1. These are incredible. Thank you!

    1. Glad to hear that, thank you very much!

  2. Absolutely fabulous recipe.. thank you so much for this… my 9 yo daughter recently was advised no dairy and she absolutely loves them.. and making them too!…

    1. Aw I’m so glad to hear that, thank you! The dairy free life doesn’t have to be miserable 🙂

  3. instead of eggs what else could you use?

    1. Hi Sade, I’ve honestly never tried anything other than eggs in these brownies so I’m not sure. I’ve heard people using mashed banana, “flax eggs” or aquafaba as replacements but I couldn’t vouch for any of them personally. Sorry if that’s no help!

  4. Looks amazing. Just out of curiosity, why the extra yolk? What does it do?

    1. Thanks, Rachel! The extra yolk just adds an extra richness and flavour to make up for the lack of butter. It’s not strictly necessary if you don’t want to waste the egg white though!

  5. Fookin amazing brownies. I added Raspberries and not as many chocolate chips, but extra melted chocolate so probably evened out. Gooey and delicious.

    1. Sounds delicious! Thanks for trying them out!

  6. The baking time is off on these, I believe. In my US oven at 325 degrees F, it only took about 30 to 35 minutes.

    1. Oh, wow! At the equivalent temperature in celsius, mine never take less than 45 minutes? I have the 10 minute difference between the options because ovens can be so variable but that just shows it can be even more! Did you use quite a wide baking tray, just out of curiosity? (Thanks for letting me know!)
