Servings:16
  • 3/4 cup Unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 cups Granulated sugar
  • 2 pieces Large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips(optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Espresso powder(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and grease an 8x8 inch baking pan or line with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar vigorously for 2 minutes to ensure a crackly top.

  3. 3

    Add the eggs and vanilla extract, beating until the mixture is light in color and well combined.

  4. 4

    Sift in the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and espresso powder (if using) into the wet ingredients.

  5. 5

    Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula until just combined; do not overmix.

  6. 6

    Fold in the chocolate chips if desired, then pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.

  7. 7

    Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

  8. 8

    Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing to ensure the fudgy texture sets.
