That's where this one-pot brownie recipe comes in! This recipe is quick and easy to make, and it produces perfect brownies every time.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted

  • 1 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.

  2. In a large saucepan, combine the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the butter is melted and the sugars are dissolved.

  3. Remove from heat and stir in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.

  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Add to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined.

  5. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  6. Let cool completely before cutting into squares and serving.

Tips and Tricks:

  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate cocoa powder.

  • Add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts or dried fruit to the batter for a fun twist.

  • Serve with your favorite ice cream or whipped cream for a decadent treat.

Here are some additional tips and tricks for making the perfect brownies:

  • Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the brownies to bake evenly.

  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the brownies tough.

  • Be careful not to overbake the brownies. An overbaked brownie will be dry and crumbly.

  • Let the brownies cool completely before frosting. Frosting a warm brownie can make it soggy.

Here are some ideas for serving brownies:

  • Serve plain with a dusting of powdered sugar.

  • Serve with your favorite ice cream or whipped cream.

  • Serve with a fruit sauce or compote.

  • Use brownies as a base for a trifle or other dessert.
