Triple chocolate brownies are irresistible fudge brownies made from a combination of unsweetened chocolate, dark chocolate, and white chocolate.
These triple chocolate brownies promise relaxation. Each bite comes with a soothing warm hug.
Chocolate lovers of all ages will rejoice in the amount of chocolate goodness in each serving!
Ingredients
This recipe uses all your standard brownie ingredients: cocoa powder, sugar, eggs, and flour, with the exception of a few special additions.
While these are called “triple chocolate brownies,” the recipe technically uses four chocolates:
- unsweetened chocolate (cocoa powder and solid chocolate)
- extra dark chocolate chips
- semi-sweet chocolate chips
- white chocolate chips
The difference between dark chocolate and semi-sweet chocolate chips is negligible. I would only call these quadruple chocolate brownies if I had included milk chocolate chips!
Another key ingredient that makes these brownies special is the combination of butter and oil.
These brownies are dense and fudge-like with a slightly crisp exterior thanks to the mixture of butter and coconut oil.
These brownies are perfect for mailing to far away friends. They stay moist days after baking!
Baking Notes
Bake until the surface of the brownies are set. You may insert a toothpick in the center of the brownies to ensure they are done.
Over-baked brownies will result in a dry, cakey texture. It is better to err on the side of under-baked.
The brownies will continue to slightly “cook” as it sits on the cooling rack in the baking pan.
Tips for Slicing Brownies
Warm brownies will be difficult to slice into clean portions. Wait for the brownies to cool to room temperature.
Use a clean, sharp knife. Wipe knife with a clean towel in between slices.
You may also use a stainless steel bench scraper (also known as pastry scraper or dough cutter) for quick, clean cuts.
Brownie Storage
Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. After the third or fourth day, the brownies will start to stale.
If necessary, quickly reheat in the microwave for 10 second intervals with a mug of water. The mug of water will ensure the brownies do not dry out.

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on all four sides of pan. Lightly grease with cooking spray and set aside.
- In a large bowl, add butter, coconut oil, chopped unsweetened chocolate, and unsweetened cocoa powder. Fill a medium pot with about two inches of water. Bring to a boil and remove from heat.
- Place bowl over pot of water (making sure bowl does not touch water) and allow ingredients to gently melt. Stir as needed to ensure even melting. Add sugar and brown sugar. Mix until sugars have been thoroughly incorporated. Remove bowl from pot. Allow mixture to cool slightly before stirring in whisked eggs and vanilla.

Notes
- I used this 8-inch square baking pan.
- Warm brownies will be difficult to slice into clean portions. Wait for brownies to cool to room temperature.
- I used these 63% extra dark chocolate chips.
- Use any mixture of chocolate chips to equal 1 1/2 cups (milk chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, mint chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, etc)
- Overbaking the brownies will result in a dry, cakey texture. It is better to err on the side of underbaked.
