The Ultimate Fudgy Brownies
Finally! My search for the perfect brownie is over! These brownies really were what I was looking for! They are fudgy and oh so chocolately! They would be perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or just enjoyed with a tall, cool glass of milk.
I ate one of them and sent the rest with Jamison to work to share with his co-workers so I wouldn't be tempted to eat them all! ;o) They were that good! They seemed to be a hit there too. This treat day thing might just become tradition. What better way to test out recipes! ;o)
What You'll Need:
2 sticks of butter, melted
2 1/2 cups of organic cane sugar
1 1/2 cups of cocoa
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1 tablespoon of vanilla
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups of unbleached all purpose flour
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Carefully mix melted butter with sugar until sugar is completely wet. Stir cocoa into the butter/sugar mixture and mix until completely incorporated. Stir in baking powder and vanilla until mixed. Stir in eggs until completely incorporated. Add flour and mix until batter is fudgy and flour is completely mixed. Spread into a 13 X 9 inch pan that has been sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake for 25-30 minutes until brownies are done, but still fudgy. Cool and cut into squares.
Makes 24-36 brownies. (Note: I recommend cutting them into 36 small brownies. They are delicious, but very rich!)
Notes: This recipe is adapted from the back of a package of King Arthur Baking Company unbleached all purpose flour from a recipe called "The Best Fudge Brownies Ever". They don't have the recipe on their webpage though. You could substitute white whole wheat flour to make them "better" for you, but we're talking brownies here so that's all relative. In their recipe they recommend adding 2 cups of chocolate chips, but I skipped that step. You could also add in a cup of chopped nuts and/or a cup of coconut for a tropical flare. Peanut butter chips would be good too or if you wanted to make Rocky Road Brownies you could add in mini marshmallows and nuts.
