The "Best Homemade Brownies"

When I came upon this recipe, I thought the name was just another creative title to convince people to make these brownies. Somehow, though, I fell for it and made them. Listen to the name: they are definitely the BEST homemade brownies I have ever tasted before! Every other brownie I've made has always had something a little off about it, maybe there was too much butter, not enough sugar, or even just the gooeyness of it. These brownies, however, definitely deserve the title "best homemade brownies". I hope you enjoy them just as much as I did!



For these brownies you will need:

  • 1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, and then melt the butter in a large saucepan. You will use this pan to mix together the brownie batter, which I thought was weird, but it worked. 


Then, remove the pan from the heat and add in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla. 


Next, beat in the cocoa, salt, flour, and baking powder. I would recommend using a whisk because an electric mixer will ruin the pan and the mixer. 



Last but not least, gently fold in the chocolate chips. 


The batter should look a little thin, but also not too thin, like water. 


Pour the batter into a greased 8x8 pan, or, if you chose to half it, a bread loaf pan is just about the right size. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until you can stick a toothpick into the brownies and it comes out clean. 


After they're done, let them cool in the pan until cutting and serving. These brownies truly deserve the title "best homemade brownies" because they not only taste like home, but they also consist of a creamy and chewy texture and chocolate flavor that keeps the baker wanting more. :) Enjoy!
