Ingredients

Main Ingredients

1 cup granulated sugar Consider brown sugar for a richer flavor.
1/2 cup unsalted butter Can be replaced with coconut oil for a dairy-free option.
2 large eggs For a vegan version, try flax eggs.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract A touch of espresso can amplify the chocolate taste.
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder Dutch-processed cocoa gives a smoother flavor.
1/2 cup all-purpose flour Substitute with gluten-free flour if needed.
1/4 teaspoon salt Feel free to adjust to taste.
1/4 teaspoon baking powder Ensure it’s fresh for best results.

Method

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, melt the butter, then stir in the sugar and vanilla.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, whisk the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder together.
Gradually combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.

Baking

Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Let cool in the pan before slicing into squares.

Notes

Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce, or powdered sugar. Store in an airtight container for up to five days. These brownies can be frozen for up to three months.
