Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter or oil
- 1 cup sugar see note
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa preferably, dutch processed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1/4 tsp salt leave out if using salted butter
- 1/2 cup favorite adds-ins (chopped dark chocolate, chocolate chips or walnut)
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350F. Grease an 8x8 square pan or a 9x5 loaf pan or line with parchment or foil; set aside.
- In a large microwave-safe mixing bowl, add the butter and microwave for 1 minute or until completely melted. Add the sugar and cocoa powder and whisk vigorously for at least a minute, until the sugar has dissolved.
- Add eggs one at a time then vanilla and whisk for at least 1 minute, until well combined and batter is shiny.
- Stir in flour and salt until the flour is fully combined. Be careful not to overmix mix.
- (optional) fold in 1/2 cup of nuts, raisins, chocolate chips or anything you desire.
- Spread in pan and bake for approximately 20 minutes or until the center is slightly set. Be careful not to over-bake!
- Cool completely then cut into 9 large squares or 16 small squares ( I cut mine into 16)

Notes
- For EXTRA gooey brownies: Add 1 tablespoon oil of choice to the batter along with the butter.
- For espresso flavor: add 1 teaspoon of instant coffee or espresso powder to boost the chocolate flavor.
- Doubling the recipe: This recipe also doubles well in a 9x13 pan or 9x9 pan, add 5-7 minutes of baking time. To double, adjust the serving size above to 32.
- The sweetness: The recipe calls for 1 cup of sugar; feel free to use between 3/4 cup - 1 1/4 cup depending on your personal preference!
- Don't over-bake. Be sure to bake these brownies for no more than 20-25 minutes. Overbaking the brownies will make them dry and cakey.
- The serving size: we cut the brownies into 16 small brownies and the serving size is per brownie. To cut into larger brownies, cut into 9 large pieces.
