Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup butter (melted)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- 1. Preheat Your Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
- 2. Mix Dry Ingredients
- In a medium bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, sugar, and salt until well combined, breaking up any cocoa lumps.
- 3. Melt the Butter
- In another bowl or microwave-safe dish, melt the butter until bubbly but not browned. Allow it to cool slightly.
- 4. Combine Wet Ingredients
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the melted butter. Whisk until smooth and combined.
- 5. Create Brownie Batter
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined—avoid overmixing for that fudgy texture.
- 6. Bake
- Spread the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for about 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs. Let them cool slightly before slicing into squares.
