Fudgy & Cakey Brownies

Ingredients

• 8 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
• 2 large eggs (room temperature)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 3/4 cup cocoa powder (Dutch processed preferred for deeper flavor)
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp baking soda

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and line an 8" x 8" pan with parchment paper and set aside.

2. 2

   In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine butter and sugar. Microwave for 30 seconds, then remove and stir with a whisk. Repeat the microwave and stir process 2 more times until the mixture reaches a glossy finish, though some sugar granules may remain.

3. 3

   Allow mixture to cool slightly, then add eggs one at a time, whisking between each addition until the mixture lightens in color slightly.

4. 4

   Add cocoa powder, salt, baking soda, and vanilla extract to the mixture, then fold in flour until just combined.

5. 5

   Pour mixture into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 30-50 minutes, testing for doneness starting at 30 ish minutes by inserting a knife into the center—brownies are done when the edges are set but the center still has a bit of batter on the knife.
