Brownie Ingredients

Method

Brownie Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.

  2. 2

    Melt Butter

    In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.

  3. 3

    Mix Sugars and Eggs

    Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

  4. 4

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt.

  5. 5

    Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

  6. 6

    Add Chocolate Chips

    Fold in the chocolate chips, if using.

  7. 7

    Bake the Brownies

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

  8. 8

    Cool and Serve

    Let the brownies cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into squares.
