Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate rich flavor
- ¾ cup butter, canola oil, or coconut oil moisture and richness
- 1 ¼ cups sugar sweetness
- 3 large eggs binding and structure
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract flavor enhancement
- ½ to 1 teaspoon ground espresso coffee optional, flavor depth
- a pinch salt balances sweetness
- 1 cup flour structure
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease an 8-inch square pan.
- In a saucepan over very low heat, melt the semi-sweet chocolate and butter together, stirring gently until smooth.
- Remove from heat, add the sugar, and mix thoroughly. Let cool slightly.
- Once cooled, add the eggs and beat them into the chocolate mixture until smooth.
- Fold in the vanilla extract, optional espresso coffee, salt, and flour until just combined.
- Transfer the batter into the greased pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake for about 30 minutes for fudgier brownies or 35 minutes for firmer ones. A toothpick should come out with a few moist crumbs.
Notes
Allow brownies to cool in the pan before slicing for cleaner edges. Store in an airtight container to maintain moisture.
