Are you team chewy brownies? Then this is the recipe for you. It uses a combination of oil and butter; the oil gives the chewy texture, while the butter provides the rich mouthfeel we love. (Light brown sugar also adds to the chewiness and offers a touch of caramel flavor.) Use the best-quality unsweetened chocolate you can find for these brownies—chocolate is the main flavor, so it really makes a difference to the finished dessert. Pro tip: If you like a crackly crust, mix the chocolate, sugar, and eggs together until they are shiny.

Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5 and line a shallow 23cm square baking tin with baking parchment. Tip the beans, cocoa, coffee granules, xylitol, vanilla, eggs and yogurt into a large bowl. Blitz using a hand blender until smooth. Or, do this in a food processor. Add the baking powder, then blitz again.
