Best Brownie Recipe Ever
These brownies are exactly what you need for a chocolate fix. They are super easy to make, and I promise you, they are going to be a hit at any gathering!
Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips (optional, but highly recommended!)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla.
- Combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Don’t overmix!
- If you’re a chocolate lover, fold in the chocolate chips at this stage for an extra chocolatey brownie.
- Pour the batter into your prepared pan and spread it out evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes. You want them to be set in the middle but still soft and fudgy. Trust me, they will continue to cook as they cool!
- Once baked, let them cool in the pan for a bit before taking them out to slice. Serve them warm for that melty perfection, or let them cool completely for nice, clean cuts.
There you have it! A simple, delicious recipe for the best brownies ever. I can’t wait for you to try it out and see the faces light up when they take that first bite. Happy baking!
