How to Make Chocolate-Covered Brownie Bars

Step 1: Make the Brownie Base

Melt the butter and whisk it with sugar until glossy. Add eggs and vanilla—this is where the batter gets beautifully shiny. Fold in dry ingredients gently to keep that rich, fudgy texture.

Step 2: Bake

Spread into a lined pan and bake until the center is set but still soft. The smell? Incredible. When your kitchen starts smelling like warm chocolate heaven, you’re almost there.

Step 3: Cool Completely

Cold brownies = clean cuts. Don’t rush this part!

Step 4: Slice

Cut into bars or squares—big, small, bite-size, whatever your sweet tooth dictates.

Step 5: Dip in Chocolate

Melt chocolate (and coconut oil if using). Dip each bar, let the excess drip, then place on parchment.

Step 6: Chill & Enjoy

Refrigerate for 10–15 minutes until the chocolate sets. Then just try not to grab three at once. I believe in you… kinda.
