Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 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
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line with parchment paper.
- Melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in sugar, eggs, and vanilla until well blended.
- In a small bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir dry ingredients into the butter mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Do not overbake.
- Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
Tips
- For extra fudgy brownies, use 2 tablespoons of butter and replace 1/4 cup of sugar with brown sugar.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert.
