An Amazing Ultimate Recipe for Chocolate Brownies

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)
  • ½ cup chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar. Mix well, then add the eggs one at a time, stirring to incorporate after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mix until smooth.
  4. In another bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and/or chopped nuts if desired.
  7. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly.
  8. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. The brownies are done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Once cooled, cut into squares and serve as desired.
