Fudgy Brownies
Check out this delightful visual of our star! Isn’t it as enticing as a puppy with a floppy ear?
Ingredients:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips (optional but who are we kidding? It’s mandatory!)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish. This is where the brownie magic will happen!
- In a nifty saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, stir in the sugar until well combined. Don’t forget to admire the buttery goodness while you do this!
- Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Now add those delicious eggs, one at a time. Mix well after each addition. It’s like a sweet workout—no need for a gym today!
- Stir in the vanilla extract. Ahh, the aroma will send you to chocolate heaven!
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mix to the wet ingredients. It’s gonna get thick, so mix like you mean it!
- If you’re feeling extra generous (and why wouldn’t you be?), fold in those chocolate chips. Trust me; they’re the cherry on top!
- Pour the brownie batter into the greased dish and spread it evenly. Now, it’s just waiting to be baked to perfection!
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. The edges should look firm, but the center will still be a little gooey. That’s how we like it, isn’t it?
- Let the brownies cool for a bit, then cut into squares and try not to eat the whole pan in one sitting. Good luck with that!
There you have it! Fudgy brownies that are as delightful as a spontaneous dance party. Don’t forget to share with friends (or don’t—that’s entirely up to you). Happy baking!
