Main
  • 1 cup unsalted butter

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 9x13 inch baking pan

Method

  3. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
  4. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the granulated sugar until well combined.
  5. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
  6. Stir in the vanilla extract, followed by the flour, cocoa powder, and salt.

  8. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Notes

For extra fudginess, do not overbake. Store brownies in an airtight container to maintain their soft texture.
