Indulge in these Fudgy Cocoa Brownies, featuring a rich chocolate flavor and simple preparation for a delightful treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter
  • 1/4 cup Cooking Oil (Olive or Coconut)
  • 1 cup Granulated Sweetener or Superfine Sugar
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1/2 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch square baking pan with butter or oil. Line with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine hot melted butter with cooking oil and sugar. Mix vigorously for about one minute until well combined and slightly glossy.
  3. Add large eggs and pure vanilla extract. Beat until lighter in shade, about 30 seconds, until creamy.
  4. Sift in all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the wet mixture. Gently fold until just combined, avoiding over-mixing.
  5. Pour brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top. Optionally add chocolate chunks on top.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the center is set, checking for a few moist crumbs on a toothpick.
  7. Allow brownies to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before lifting out and slicing into 16 squares.

Notes

  • Use light or low-fat butter to reduce calories.
  • A 1:1 ratio sweetener can reduce calories.
  • Beaten eggs until lighter helps with texture.
  • Use high-quality vanilla extract for best results.
  • Whole wheat flour can be used for a healthier option.
