Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
- 2 TBS vegetable oil
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 4 large eggs (room temperature)
- 1 tsp vanilla
- ¾ tsp salt
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking pan with oil or non-stick baking spray.
- Making sure your melted butter is cooled, add it to the oil and sugars in a medium bowl. Whisk or beat until well combined.
- Add the eggs and vanilla and beat again, making sure it’s completely mixed.
- Sift (or just pour) the flour, salt, and cocoa powder into the bowl. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined without overmixing.
- Pour the homemade brownie batter into your greased pan, smoothing them out with a silicone spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes if you like your brownies to have a fudgier texture or if you want them a bit more done, leave them in for 30-35 minutes.
- Let the brownies cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes. Then remove brownies from the pan and allow to cool to room temperature.

Notes
- Let the brownies come to room temperature if you plan to cut the brownies into shapes. Otherwise you really can eat them whenever. Just don't burn yourself.
- Store in an airtight container for up to five days before getting rid of the brownies.
- These homemade brownies can be frozen. Cut into squares before freezing and wrap each brownie individually in plastic wrap than store in a freezer safe gallon size bag in the freezer. Then when you’re ready to enjoy, remove one individual brownie from the freezer and let come to room temperature before eating.
- Homemade brownies can be reheated for 10-15 seconds in the microwave or put them in a cold oven and turn it on to 350 degrees. Let the brownies heat up along with the oven and remove when warm.
