- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup (40g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup (65g) all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
For the Chai Spice Mix:
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

- 1 cup (175g) white chocolate chips
Instructions
Preparation Time:
Approximately 1 hour
Yields:
12 servings
Step-by-Step Preparation:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9 inch baking pan and line with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Remove from heat and stir in sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, flour, salt, baking powder, and the chai spice mix ingredients until well blended.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- While the brownies are baking, prepare the white chocolate ganache. Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.
- Remove from heat and pour over the white chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Let it sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy.
- Once the brownies are done, allow them to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Pour the prepared white chocolate ganache over the cooled brownies, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Allow the ganache to set at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
Final Tips for Perfection:
- Ensure the butter is fully melted before adding other ingredients to create a smooth batter.
- For a stronger chai flavor, feel free to adjust the spice mix according to your taste preferences.
- Allow the ganache to cool slightly before pouring it over the brownies to prevent it from being too runny.
- For an added touch, sprinkle a pinch of chai spice mix on top of the ganache before it sets.
