How to Make Rocky Top Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9-inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 2 cups granulated sugar, and 4 large eggs. Beat until smooth and creamy.
  3. Gradually add 1 cup all-purpose flour and 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder to the wet ingredients. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.
  4. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  5. Bake for 23 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  6. Remove from oven and evenly sprinkle with 1 cup of your favorite chopped candy (e.g., chocolate chips, peanut butter cups, etc.).
  7. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 2 minutes.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
