the best brownies

A step by step breakdown on how to make the absolute best fudgy AND cakey brownies.

Back to Basics: How to Make the Best Brownies

unsalted butter

brown sugar

4 large eggs, room temperature

cocoa powder

teaspoon salt

vanilla extract

all-purpose flour

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and line a 9″x9″ pan with parchment paper and set aside.

In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine butter and sugar. Microwave for 30 seconds, then remove and stir with a whisk. Repeat process 2 more times. Though granules of sugar will remain, the goal is to get the mixture to a glossy finish.

Allow mixture to cool slightly, then add in eggs one at a time, whisking in between each addition. Whisk until the mixture lightens in color slightly.

Add in cocoa powder, salt, and vanilla extract. Fold in flour until just combined.

Pour mixture into prepared baking pan and bake for roughly 45 minutes, testing for doneness by inserting a knife into the center of the brownies beginning at 40 minutes. You&#8217;ll know they&#8217;re done when the edge is set, but a knife inserted into the middle still comes out with a bit of brownie batter on it. It might take up to 55 minutes for them to cook through depending on your oven!

They are REALLY the BEST brownies!! I have tried lots of recipies and I'm absolutely staying with this one, soooo good

I’m not gonna lie when I finished the recipe I was hesitant into thinking I wasted my good cocoa on brownies that baked into chocolate cake but when it cools it begins to dense and it’s so so so so chocolatey with the perfect amount of Cakey and Fudgy duo, inlove, new brownie recipe for sure.

So I followed the recipe to the T. I have a gas oven if that helps, but I feel like no matter what I get cake brownies. The top is not the crunchy type you get from a box at all. The inside kinda tastes like a brownie but I didn't want the cake taste. Did I do something wrong?

nice  used this for school work and  we make it sometimes me and my elder sister

They were *actually*  the best brownies I’ve ever had! I have made them too many times to count, everyone loves them!!

I have tried so many brownie recipes before and they've always been too dry but these were incredible! Crispy on the top and gooey on the bottom

Great recipe! Love the texture of these brownies and all of my friends really enjoyed them too!
