Fudgy Brownies

Posted by Dexie

I haven't made homemade brownies in a while. I confess, I have been relying on boxes lately. Hey, they're quick and just as good as the homemade ones. I saw a recipe of super fudgy brownies at EverydayFoodMag cookbook so I thought I'd try it. Although my brownies didn't look as pretty as the ones in the magazines, my family enjoyed 'em immensely :)

Recipe taken from EverydayFoodMag:

1 stick butter, cut into pieces, plus a little bit more for the pan
1 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
8 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1 1/4 cups sugar
3 large eggs

Preheat oven to 350F. Brush a 9-inch square baking pan with butter. Line bottom and two sides with a strip of parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the 2 sides. Butter paper, and set pan aside. In a small bowl, whisk flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Set aside.

Place butter and chocolate in a large heat-proof bowl set over(not in) a saucepan of gently simmering water. Heat stirring occasionally, until smooth, 2-3 minutes; remove bowl from pan. Add sugar; mix to combine. Add eggs and mix to combine. Add flour mixture; mix just until moistened(do not over mix). Transfer batter to prepared pan; smooth top.

Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached. Cool in pan for 30 minutes. Using paper overhang, lift brownies out of pan. Transfer to a rack to cool completely. On a cutting board, using a dampened serrated knife, cut into 16 squares. Store in an airtight container at room temperature, up to 2 days.

ENJOY!
