How to Make Fat Witch Cocoa Brownies

  1. Grease a 9x9 inch baking pan with butter.
  2. Dust with 2 tablespoons of flour, tapping out the excess.
  3. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  4. In a small saucepan, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter over low heat. Do not brown.
  5. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
  6. Add 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar to the melted butter.
  7. Whisk until completely blended and smooth.
  8. Add 2 large eggs one at a time, whisking vigorously after each addition until the mixture is smooth and shiny.
  9. Add 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
  10. Whisk to combine.
  11. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  12. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  13. Stir in 1 cup of chopped walnuts or your favorite mix-ins (optional).
  14. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared baking pan.
  15. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  16. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. For best results, cool for at least 1 hour on a wire rack before cutting and serving.
