How to Bake These Rich, Chewy, Can’t-Stop Brownies
Crank your oven to a toasty 350°F, getting ready for some serious chocolate magic.
Grab a 9×9-inch pan and give it a quick spray with cooking oil. Then tuck a piece of parchment paper inside, letting the edges hang over – this will make brownie removal a total breeze.
Grab a large mixing bowl and melt your butter and chocolate together. Stir until they’re smooth and glossy, creating a rich, velvety mixture that’ll make your kitchen smell incredible.
Whisk in sugar, eggs, and vanilla until everything blends into a silky, luxurious batter. Your arm might get a little tired, but trust me, it’s totally worth it.
Sprinkle in flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gently fold everything together, being careful not to overmix – you want these brownies tender and fudgy.
Transfer your luscious batter into the prepared pan. Use a spatula to spread it evenly, making sure every corner gets some chocolate love.
Slide the pan into the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes. You’ll know they’re done when the edges look set but the center still has a slight jiggle.
Let the brownies cool completely in the pan. Then use those parchment paper edges to lift them out and slice into decadent squares of pure happiness.
