Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon red food coloring
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In another bowl, mix the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and red food coloring until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. If using, fold in the white chocolate chips.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a cream cheese frosting, mix 4 oz of softened cream cheese with 1/4 cup powdered sugar and a splash of vanilla extract, then spread it over the cooled brownies.
- Add chopped nuts or a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking for added texture and flavor.
