When I think of brownies, a hundred memories flash back to my mind. The best one is my 19th birthday. That year, literally every friend who offered me a gift added a tray of brownies to it. Some baked them by themselves, others asked their moms to do so. Sometimes the latter even had to do research to find out what brownies actually are. You can imagine that after this, I had a serious overdose. Understandable, right? Even the biggest chocoholic cannot cope with more than 10 trays of brownies. My family and friends loved it though because for more than a week, we had brownies EVERY SINGLE DAY!
But what makes brownies so special? Why wouldn’t one go for a simple chocolate cake you might ask?
What I love most about brownies is the chewy gooey fudgy texture on the inside and the crisp crust on the outside. I tested this recipe three times to find the perfect balance between cacao and chocolate. What I can say is, that I’ve managed to create the perfect balance. My friends and colleagues tested them, and all camps approved without blinking an eye. That’s when you know you did everything right.
Why you’ll love this recipe?

Elevated texture experience: Fudgy brownie layers contrast beautifully with the crunchy pistachios, offering a delightful balance of smooth and crisp in every bite.
A show-stopping presentation: The vibrant green pistachios against the deep chocolate brownie make these treats visually stunning and ideal for serving at special gatherings.
A treat worth savouring: Each bite feels indulgent yet carefully balanced, offering a luxurious dessert experience that’s as satisfying to eat as it is to bake.
