Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spatula
  • 8x8 inch baking pan
  • Parchment paper

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 1 1/2 cups Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Light Brown Sugar, packed
  • 3/4 cup Neutral Oil
  • 3 Large Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 cup Chocolate Chips Optional but Highly Recommended

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch metal baking pan with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine sugars and oil, whisking until it resembles wet sand.
  • Add eggs and vanilla to the sugar mixture, whisking until thicker and slightly paler in color.
  • Gently fold dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined; do not overmix.
  • Fold in chocolate chips if using, then pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly.
  • Bake for 25-35 minutes, checking with a toothpick for moist crumbs.
  • Once baked, let the brownies cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper and cutting into squares.

Notes

For an extra fudgy experience, ensure not to overmix the batter and consider using high-quality cocoa powder. You can also customize by adding ingredients like crushed Oreos or peanut butter.
