The best brownie recipeI love this new recipe I created for you. There’s so much chewy, chocolatey goodness in this recipe. It will become your go-to dessert to please a crowd. It really is the best brownie recipe! Who doesn’t love chocolate? I know, it’s a favorite for many, but it’s important to use the right proportions to achieve the perfect texture. I used less chocolate than I normally would. More chocolate typically produces a more fudgy texture. However, I was going for a fusion of fudgy and chewy with this recipe. And, the best part is this recipe comes together quickly with very few kitchen tools. No electric mixer or stand mixer required. It’s easy to whip together whenever you want (or need) some comfort food. Ingredients

How to make the best browniesIs there anything better than homemade brownies? Yum, I can smell them already. Fortunately, this recipe can be made quickly and requires few kitchen tools. Melting – You’ll start with melting the chocolate and the butter. Then, whisking in the cocoa powder to that mixture. Mixing – Keep the whisk handy. Next, combine the eggs, sugar, vanilla and salt by whisking. Pour the chocolate mixture into the above mixture and whisk to combine. Finally, fold flour into the mixture, but do not overmix. Baking – In a 350°F oven, bake the brownies for approximately 25-30 minutes. Then, use the toothpick test to determine doneness. Step 1: Melt the chocolate and butterFirst, melt the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl placed over a pot of barely simmering water. Then, continue stirring as it melts. Alternatively, you can use a glass bowl and heat in the microwave at 30-second intervals stirring in between until fully melted. Once melted, whisk in the cocoa powder until well combined and the mixture is smooth. Step 2: Whisk the eggs and sugarNext, whisk the eggs, sugar, vanilla and salt together until well combined and frothy. This process creates air that will leaven the brownies. As a result, no other leavening agents are needed. Then, add the warm chocolate and whisk until fully combined. Step 3: Mix in the flourFinally, add the flour and use a silicone spatula to fold it in just until it is blended. Take care not to overmix. This could make the final product be overly tough in texture. Step 4: BakeFinally, bake the brownies for 20-25 minutes in a 350°F oven. Use the toothpick test to check for doneness. When you remove the toothpick, it should come out with a few moist clumps clinging to it. There will also be a little batter stuck to the toothpick but it shouldn’t be covered in thick uncooked batter. Take care not to overbake brownies. Tips for success

NotesThis recipe doubles easily. Bake in a 9x13-inch baking pan for about 35 to 40 minutes. Chocolate: You may use any type of baking chocolate. I find semisweet chocolate pairs well with the unsweetened cocoa powder but you may wish to try bittersweet chocolate instead. Cocoa powder: You may use regular cocoa or Dutch-processed. Flour: Make sure to measure the flour correctly! Accidentally using too much flour will cause the brownies to be dense and hard. Make ahead tip
