how long to bake brownies at 350
The baking time for brownies at 350°F (175°C) can vary depending on the size of the pan, the thickness of the batter, and the desired level of doneness. Here are some general guidelines:
For an 8-inch square pan:
- 20-25 minutes for fudgy brownies
- 25-30 minutes for chewy brownies
- 30-35 minutes for cakey brownies
For a 9×13-inch pan:
- 25-30 minutes for fudgy brownies
- 30-35 minutes for chewy brownies
- 35-40 minutes for cakey brownies
For individual brownie cups or mini cast-iron skillets:
- 12-15 minutes for fudgy brownies
- 15-18 minutes for chewy brownies
- 18-20 minutes for cakey brownies
To ensure the brownies are done, check for the following:
- A toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- The edges are set and slightly puffed.
- The surface is dry and cracked.
Remember, it’s always better to err on the side of underbaking than overbaking, as brownies can continue to cook a bit after they’re removed from the oven.
