This homemade brownies recipe is a rich, fudgy, and delicious treat made from scratch using simple ingredients. Perfectly balanced in sweetness and cocoa flavor, these brownies have a moist and chewy texture that make for an irresistible dessert or snack.

Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Sugars

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Melt the Butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the 1/2 cup unsalted butter over low heat. Remove from heat once fully melted and slightly cooled.
  3. Combine Sugars and Butter: Stir the granulated sugar and brown sugar into the melted butter until well combined.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the 2 large eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated. Then mix in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Sift Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to break up any lumps.
  6. Mix Dry Ingredients with Wet: Gradually add the dry ingredient mix into the wet ingredients. Stir gently until just combined—avoid overmixing to keep brownies tender.
  7. Pour Batter into Pan: Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs but is not wet with batter.
  9. Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares. Enjoy!

Notes

  • For extra fudgy brownies, reduce the flour to 1/3 cup.
  • Do not overbake to avoid dry brownies; check with a toothpick a few minutes before the minimum bake time.
  • You can add chocolate chips or nuts to the batter for additional texture.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
  • Using high-quality cocoa powder will enhance the chocolate flavor significantly.
