Chocolate fudge brownies

Chocolate fudge brownies are a delicious and decadent treat that's perfect for any occasion. This recipe is simple yet delivers rich, fudgy, and chewy brownies that are sure to please chocolate lovers.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter
110g
2 tbsp dry cocoa powder
30g
1 cup sugar
230g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
2 eggs
100g
1/2 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
60g

Instructions:

1. Preheat and Prepare:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of brownies.
2. Melt Butter and Mix with Cocoa:
- In a microwave-safe bowl or a saucepan, melt the 1/2 cup butter (110g) until fully liquefied.
- Add the 2 tablespoons of dry cocoa powder (30g) to the melted butter, and stir until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
3. Combine Sugar, Eggs, and Vanilla:
- In a large mixing bowl, add 1 cup of sugar (230g).
- Pour the melted butter and cocoa mixture into the bowl with the sugar and mix well.
- Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (4g) and mix to incorporate.
- Crack the 2 eggs (100g) into the mixture, one at a time, beating well after each addition until the batter is smooth and glossy.
4. Add Flour:
- Gradually add the 1/2 cup of all-purpose white wheat flour (60g) to the mixture.
- Stir gently until just combined; be careful not to overmix as this can make the brownies tough.
5. Pour and Bake:
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
6. Cool and Serve:
- Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let the brownies cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes.
- Transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely for easier cutting.
- Cut into squares and enjoy your rich, chocolatey fudge brownies!

Tips:

- Make sure to use high-quality ingredients, especially cocoa powder and vanilla extract, for the best flavor.

- Before mixing, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature. This helps in achieving a smoother batter.

- Avoid overmixing the batter once the flour is added; mix just until combined to prevent the brownies from becoming tough.

- Line your baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides, for easy removal of the brownies once baked.

- Check the brownies a few minutes before the recommended baking time. Insert a toothpick in the center; if it comes out with a few moist crumbs, they are done. Remember, brownies continue to cook as they cool.

With just a handful of ingredients and straightforward steps, you can whip up a batch of these chocolate fudge brownies that are perfect for any dessert table or special occasion. Enjoy them warm with a scoop of ice cream or just as they are, and savor every chocolatey bite!
