Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 150 grams Brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 190 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 100 grams White chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Melt the unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over low heat or in the microwave. Let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the sugar mixture. Whisk until well combined and the mixture is slightly fluffy.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula or wooden spoon. Avoid overmixing.
If desired, fold in the white chocolate chips for an extra burst of sweetness.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing them into 9 equal squares. Serve and enjoy!
