How to Make Bittersweet Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt.
  3. Gradually add the melted butter, mixing until well combined.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. Gradually add the flour and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in the nuts (if using), gently folding them into the batter.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  8. Bake for 28-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  9. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before lifting them out and removing the foil.
  10. Cut into squares and serve. Enjoy!
