Yield Makes 9 large or 16 small squares

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for pan
6 ounces coarsely chopped good-quality semisweet chocolate
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (not Dutch-process)
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a buttered 8-inch square baking pan with foil or parchment paper, allowing 2 inches to hang over sides. Butter lining (excluding overhang); set pan aside.
  • Put butter, chocolate, and cocoa in a heatproof medium bowl set over a pan of simmering water; stir until butter and chocolate are melted. Let cool slightly.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl; set aside.
  • Put sugar, eggs, and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and beat on medium speed until pale, about 4 minutes. Add chocolate mixture; beat until combined. Add flour mixture; beat, scraping down sides of bowl, until well incorporated.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan; smooth top with a rubber spatula. Bake until a cake tester inserted into brownies (avoid center and edges) comes out with a few crumbs but is not wet, about 35 minutes. Let cool slightly in pan, about 15 minutes. Lift out brownies; let cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into squares.

These brownies were a huge disappointment. They were dry, crumbly, and had no flavor.

I've made these brownies several times and they always turn out perfectly. They're my go-to recipe for chocolate brownies.

These brownies were a bit too dense for my taste. I prefer a lighter, fluffier brownie.

I'm not a big fan of chocolate, but these brownies were still really good. They were moist and fudgy.

I used dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet chocolate and the brownies were incredibly rich and chocolatey.

I added some chopped walnuts to the batter and they turned out great. The walnuts added a nice crunch.

These brownies were dense and dry. I think I overbaked them.

The brownies were a bit too sweet for my taste. Next time I'll use less sugar.

These brownies were a hit at my party! They were fudgy, chocolatey, and disappeared in no time.
