How to make brownies fudgy?

The secret to fudgy brownies is adding more fat in the air fryer brownies mixture. Fat indicates butter in this recipe. Increase the amount of butter in the brownie batter but the number of eggs and sugar will remain the same.

This will help you to achieve fudgy air fryer brownies.
If you’re confused between fudgy brownies and cake brownies let me simply tell you.

Fudgy brownies are gooey, moist, and dense. They’re more cream and softer.

Cake brownies are airy, light, and moist. They’re more on the spongy side.

 

How to store air fryer brownies?

You can store your leftover brownies in an air-tight container that lasts for 3-4 days.
Air fryer brownies can also be frozen that lasts about 1 month. Wrap them with plastic wrap and make sure they are air-tight. Thaw it before eating.
