Time 1h15m

Yield 16 brownies

Number Of Ingredients 10

Soft butter, for greasing the pan
Flour, for dusting the buttered pan
4 large eggs
1 cup sugar, sifted
1 cup brown sugar, sifted
8 ounces melted butter
1 1/4 cups cocoa, sifted
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup flour, sifted
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Butter and flour an 8-inch square pan.
  • In a mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the eggs at medium speed until fluffy and light yellow. Add both sugars. Add remaining ingredients, and mix to combine.
  • Pour the batter into a greased and floured 8-inch square pan and bake for 45 minutes. Check for doneness with the tried-and-true toothpick method: a toothpick inserted into the center of the pan should come out clean. When it's done, remove to a rack to cool. Resist the temptation to cut into it until it's mostly cool.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will have a major impact on the taste of your brownies. Look for a chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will develop the gluten in the flour, which will make the brownies tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies in a preheated oven: This will help to ensure that the brownies bake evenly.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent them from falling apart.
  • Serve the brownies warm or at room temperature: Brownies are best served warm or at room temperature. If you refrigerate them, they will become more dense.

Conclusion:

These intensely chocolate cocoa brownies are the perfect treat for any chocolate lover. They are rich, fudgy, and have a deep chocolate flavor. They are also easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are craving something sweet, give these brownies a try. You won't be disappointed!
