Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Add-ins
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease an 8×8 inch baking pan to prevent sticking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
- Melt Butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter until fully liquefied and warm.
- Combine Butter and Sugar: Add granulated sugar to the melted butter and stir well to combine the mixture smoothly.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, followed by the vanilla extract, ensuring a smooth batter.
- Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined to maintain a fudgy texture.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter for pockets of melty chocolate.
- Pour Batter and Spread: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
- Bake: Bake the batter in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, avoiding overbaking.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the browkies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares; this ensures they set properly for fudgy and chewy bites. Enjoy!
Notes
- Use an 8×8 inch pan for optimal thickness and even baking.
- Do not overmix the batter to keep the texture fudgy and chewy.
- Test for doneness using a toothpick to avoid drying out the browkies.
- You can substitute chocolate chips with chunks or nuts for texture variations.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to 3 days.
