Fabulous Brownies Recipe

These fudgy brownies are a family favorite, adapted from a classic Nestle Cocoa recipe! Their thick, rich batter creates intensely chocolatey brownies perfect for any occasion. This recipe skips the frosting (although a recipe is available separately if you crave extra sweetness!), resulting in a less intensely sweet treat that still satisfies chocolate cravings. Get ready to experience brownie perfection!

How to Make Fabulous Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 2 cups granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup water until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  8. Bake for 18-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs (not completely clean).
  9. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
