Instructions

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ sticks unsalted butter
  • 1 ¾ cups sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ⅓ cup flour
  • ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a 8" square baking pan with parchment. Coat the parchment with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Remove from heat and whisk in the sugar, vanilla, salt, (optional) almond extract, and (optional) coffee grounds. Whisk until creamy, about 1 minute.
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well between additions. Add the cocoa powder and flour; stir with a spoon or spatula until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Pour mixture into the pan.
  4. Bake the brownies for about 42-47 minutes or until a tester inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. Cool in the pan set on a wire rack.
  5. If time allows, chill in the fridge before serving. This makes the brownies really fudgy!

Notes

This is a great recipe to dress up however you see fit. Frost the brownies. Add in different kinds of chips. “Frost” with marshmallow cream and set under the broiler for a hot second. Pretty much can’t go wrong.
