The Best Brownies Ever
My Favorite Brownies [Printable Version]
Makes 1 – 8 x 8 inch pan
Ingredients
1/2 cup (50 grams) unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup (64 grams) all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick or 113 grams) unsalted butter
1 cup (200 grams) sugar
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour and 8 x 8 inch glass baking dish.
In a medium bowl, combine the cocoa, flour, salt, and baking powder; set aside.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter. Once melted, remove from heat and whisk in the sugar until combined.
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla.
Whisk in the dry ingredients until combined and pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake for 30 – 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out with a few crumbs clinging to it. Allow brownies to cool completely before serving.

Hi! I have a simple question. Can your brownies be used to make cake pops?
Thanks in advance!
I’ve never tried before, but I would imagine that you could (and how delicious would THAT be?!).
Hi! I love your blog! Great recipes! I have a question: since my husband HAS to have nuts in his brownies. what amount of nuts would you suggest to add to this brownie recipe? Thanks!
i have a question i made these and they came out kind of gritty suggestions on how i could fix it please my husband didnt like them at all
Best brownies, yes! And, I have tried baking many recipes…. just made yours for the second time ( have it bookmarked). I, by mistake, had the oven at 325 but the brownies were perfectly done at twenty five minutes and to take them over the top I frosted them with an icing from a Texas sheet cake recipe – it can go on a just from the oven pan. I am afraid I am going to eat them all by myself!!! Oh, and thank you so much.
hey PAULA , could you email me the recipe for the Texas sheet cake icing please I am gonna mKE THE brownies and the way you made them sounds so good … thank you

If the brownies are as good as the batter, they will be great. Cooking them now.
I am making these brownies in Montenegro, and this is actually my first time making brownies from scratch! I grew up in the states where I always had pre made brownie mix (which is not sold here because brownie is an alien word to the people of Montenegro). Although, the batter is soooo delicious and I just put them in the oven. Much better than the American brownie mix. Thanks so much for this wonderful recipe!
P.S. I am only 12 years old
Hi I’m from the philippines I am so excited to try this recipe!
