RICH, FUDGY COCOA BROWNIES



Rich, Fudgy Cocoa Brownies image

These are decadent!! They disappear quickly whenever I serve them. Want to make them even better? Top them with a good buttercream icing. WOW! (I use half of a batch of Recipe #261024.) Make sure you try the Extra Rich Variation too. If you want to make brownie bites, prepare the recipe without nuts and place 1 Tbls. of batter in 48 mini muffin tins. Bake for about 10 minutes. The centers will still be a bit soft but it preserves the fudginess of them. If you bake them longer, they will be a drier, more cake-like brownie bite.

Tips for Making the Best Moist Fudgy Cocoa Brownies

- **Use high-quality cocoa powder.** This is the key ingredient that gives brownies their rich chocolate flavor. Look for a cocoa powder that is labeled "unsweetened" and has a deep, dark color. - **Don't overmix the batter.** Overmixing can result in tough, dry brownies. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined. - **Bake the brownies at a high temperature for a short period of time.** This will help to create a fudgy center. - **Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them.** This will help to prevent them from falling apart. - **Serve the brownies with your favorite toppings.** Some popular toppings include ice cream, whipped cream, and chocolate chips.
