Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chunks (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- Mix wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter and sugar until combined. Add eggs and vanilla extract, whisk until smooth and slightly thickened.
- Add dry ingredients: Sift in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir until just combined—do not overmix. Fold in chocolate chips if using.
- Bake: Pour batter into prepared pan, smooth the top, and bake for 20–25 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and serve: Let cool completely in the pan before slicing.
Notes
- For extra fudgy brownies, bake closer to 20 minutes.
- You can add nuts or swirl in peanut butter or caramel for variety.
