Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until smooth.
  3. Add the eggs and mix until fully incorporated.
  4. Stir in the cocoa powder and flour until a thick brownie batter forms.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 22-25 minutes, or until the center is set. Cool completely before slicing.

Notes

For an extra fudgy texture, slightly underbake. Add chocolate chips or nuts for extra flavor.
