Follow these simple steps to create a delicious treat that’s sure to bring smiles to your kitchen.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Directions:
- Prepare Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch square baking pan to prevent sticking.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, thoroughly mix the melted butter, sugar, and vanilla. Beat in the eggs one at a time until the mixture is smooth and light in color.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. This helps to aerate the ingredients and ensures a smooth texture in the batter.
- Make the Batter: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until well blended. The batter should be thick and glossy.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. The brownies are done when they start to pull away from the edges of the pan.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool in the pan on a wire rack before slicing into squares. This helps them set and makes them easier to cut.
