Method

Brownie Batter Preparation

  1. 1

    Melt the Butter

    In a medium saucepan, melt 1 cup of unsalted butter over low heat. Remove from heat once melted.

  2. 2

    Mix Sugars

    Add 1.5 cups of granulated sugar and 0.5 cups of brown sugar to the melted butter. Stir until well combined.

  3. 3

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

    Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in 2 tsp of vanilla extract.

    In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 0.75 cups of unsweetened cocoa powder, and 0.5 tsp of salt.

  5. 5

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

    Bake Brownies

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
