Kitchen Equipment Needed
- Mixing bowls
- Whisk
- Spatula
- 8×8 inch baking pan
- Parchment paper
- Measuring cups and spoons
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup chocolate chunks (or chocolate chips)
Directions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until combined. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and whisk until the mixture is smooth and slightly pale.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Sift in the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Use a spatula to gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Add Chocolate Chunks: Fold in the chocolate chunks (or chocolate chips) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Cut into squares and enjoy!
