so glad you did this. i made the babish ones twice and they've made me seriously reconsider what my definition of chewy is...glad to know i'm not crazy
No, you're not crazy! I found Babish's brownie to be much more cakey than chewy - I don't know that the bread flour had the desired effect... but still love Babish! Thanks for watching, Harry.
Glad I'm not the only one that had issues with the Babish recipe being cakey. I thought I messed up and tried the recipe 2 more times, mixing more each time to try and build up more gluten to make them chewier but they all ended up cakey. I've since switched to Stella Parks recipe and it's basically my ideal with only two slight modifications for my taste.
It sounds like we had the same experience with Babish's brownies, vnolram! I'll add Stella Parks' version to my "to bake" list. What modifications do you recommend? Thanks for the comment and for watching!
@@ckbakes I upped the salt to 8g from 4g, but I like brownies a bit saltier than most. Also replaced .5 oz of the dutch process cocoa powder for the same amount black cocoa powder to give it a bit of a deeper almost oreo flavor. Again, mainly just for personal preference. The base recipe is really good too. It should be the "Glossy Fudge Brownies Recipe" on Serious Eats.
David Seymour did this test a year ago, and included Claire and Alvin's brownies. For those who like this format, David has a lot of these testing videos.
How adorable y’all look ❤️ New subscriber here. I can’t wait to make the Tasty recipe for my Husband of 40 years. Thank you for sharing 👍👍👏 Stay safe healthy and happy ✝️🇺🇸
Thanks for watching and subscribing, UCF Mum! 😇 Please let me know how you like the Tasty brownies once you make them. They’re so good that I ended up making another batch last week!
Thanks, Aayan! I don't have the written ingredients and method for the Babish recipe but you can find the Tasty one here: tasty.co/recipe/ultimate-brownies
Hi mam mor ☕️ I like your best brownies recipe . I have little hearing problem can you give me written recipe please so I can follow your brownie recipe please thanks Hansa from London
Hi Hansa! Thank you for watching! I don’t have the Binging with Babish recipe written out but you can find the Tasty recipe (that’s the one me and my live-in taste tester really liked) here: tasty.co/recipe/ultimate-brownies. P.S. I love London and can’t wait to go back! Hope you’re having a lovely Spring and enjoying all the daffodils.
Using the O.W.L.s examination grades for your bakes is brilliant! A lot of rating systems leave you wondering whether a 3/5 stars or 4/10 score equates to something being liked or disliked, but by using a pass or fail grading system, at least you know for sure whether a recipe is outstanding, exceeds expectations, acceptable, poor, dreadful, or (my personal favourite) troll. To my knowledge, no character has ever received a T as you basically have to purposely fail an exam to achieve worse than dreadful...
Thank you, Arkanaax! I like the grading system too. I've never baked a T but I did bake a D once. It was rough: ua-cam.com/video/RVGajejxsu4/v-deo.html&
@@ckbakes It's shocking how relatable that experience is. There has been many a time where I've come across recipe books ripe with seemingly delicious, moist cakes and muffins only to find them bland and dry. One that comes to mind was a Carrot Cake with Tuscan Spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves,) and a Streusel topping... The cake was thoroughly underwhelming. Plus, no cream cheese icing? Scandalous! Not quite a T but definitely deserving of a D.
@@Arkanaax Yes - that's been my experience as well! I also started grading, and writing down the grades in my cookbooks, because it was an easy shorthand for me later to remember how much I liked a recipe and if I wanted to bake it again.
Sry i have to say it, but this is not a good comparison between the two recipes. At first: Babish made 3 different recipes and you don't say which it is. (It's the third btw) Second: Babish specially said the baking time pretends on the liking and he baked it short for a melty brownie and you baked obviously longer. Third: If you want the really good and chewy Brownie from Babish you should try his second recipe. That is the real Gamechanger.
I still enjoy your videos, but I really prefer the old format. You’re pretty entertaining to watch, and the new format doesn’t highlight that. Ok here’s the complement. I watch all of your baking videos even though I’m a carnivore and will therefore never use any of the recipes.
Thank you for your feedback, Lorrie! I'm trying out new things but I'm glad to hear that you liked the old format - I do too. I'll definitely take your feedback into account when I film the next one. Thanks for watching!
mabye just dont overcook them next time, I did babish's recipe, cooked for 30 minutes (like he said), and them where the chewiest brownies ive ever had
Hey Charles - I like your theory. In his video Babish says you can cook them for 25 - 35 minutes so maybe a shorter bake would have made for a more delicious brownie. I'll try that next time. Thanks for watching.

@@vnolram Thank you! I love a salty brownie so I'll definitely try this with your modifications.
one of my favorite brownie recipes is stayathomechef's! definitely recommend that one :D
@@rinnerifu Gotta try that one! I'll add it to my list. :)

Which one did David like the best?
This was so informative! I will definitely give Stella Parks' recipe a try! 😊
Same here! Maybe I'll need to test Stella's recipe against Tasty's next...
Please continue making more of these! Loveeee
Thank you, Julie! I will!

Thanks for watching, Carmen! Hope your batch came out well 😇
I love browny i bake it. Tnx for your good recipe
Thanks for watching! I hope you try them.
Makes me wonder if mixing some chocolate chunks into the tasty brownies would make the best of both worlds.
That's a great idea! I'll try that next time.
Waoooo looking soooo much tasty....please write Down the ingredients and quantity as welll
Thanks, Aayan! I don't have the written ingredients and method for the Babish recipe but you can find the Tasty one here: tasty.co/recipe/ultimate-brownies

Awesome recipe. Looks yummy and tasty dessert. Very nice presentation. Thanks for sharing.

Heading out in the mean streets of New York to find a brownie *right now*
We can make them in your home next week!
Looks yum😋I am gonna try this for my kids thank you for recipe 😊👍
I hope they enjoy it! Thank you for watching.
Glad you're back at it.
Thank you, Scott! 😇
Okay this was great. Next can you put tasty’s against Clair Saffitz’s and Alvin’s 100 hour brownies. Thanks!
Good idea, Jenna! I also want to try Stella Parks' recipe, which many have recommended to me. Thanks for watching!
@@ckbakes I love your enthusiasm! Sounds good. I feel bad for you though, because what are you going to do with all those brownies when your done! 😝
I can’t tell you how badly I want a brownie right now
We can make some together!
One thing for sure....
Sugar overloaded.
Can only describe both as "Overly sweet"....
You're right, Jenn! These are definitely for those who have a sweet tooth.
Love it! Those brownies look so delicious!
They are!
Babish does underbake his, and the 3rd recipe in the vid is the best one. Fudgy is required
Fudgy is definitely required.
Wao looking so yummy.thanks for sharing👌🏻
Thank you for watching!

First time watching you but I'm sure it won't be my last ,I love ur energy 🤍
Ritta, thank you! Appreciate you watching and leaving a comment. 😇
Oh, for Babish's recipe, you used too much flour. Looking at the recipe on his website, you actually had to use 1.5 cups of bread flour...
That's really helpful! Thanks, Kassia.
Self-flake ☺️
Had to do it!
Sry i have to say it, but this is not a good comparison between the two recipes.
At first:
Babish made 3 different recipes and you don't say which it is. (It's the third btw)
