Ingredients Method

What goes in the bowl

• ¼ cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup dark brown sugar packed
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• ¾ cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• ½ cup chopped pecans or preferred type of nut, optional

How the cooking goes

Prepare your pan and oven

1. Heat your oven to 350°F.
2. Butter an 8×8 baking dish or line with criss-crossed baking paper.

Make the batter

1. Warm the butter in a mixing bowl in the microwave. You usually do 15 second intervals. This can also be done in a small pot on the stovetop.
2. Add the sugar to the bowl with the butter then whisk until completely incorporated.
3. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla until the texture looks smooth and no streaks of eggs remain.
4. Put the flour, baking powder, and salt and mix until the mix just comes together. You can, of course, whisk together the dry ingredients in another small bowl so that the baking powder and salt are evenly distributed. it is steady to do this but This kitchen is persnickety and we know this. Optional: Fold through pecans or anything your heart desires!

Bake and cool the brownie

1. Set the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake the brownies for 20-25 minutes and remember the baking time will depend on the baking dish you chose. They are done when the edges are deep gold and a cake tester or wooden skewer comes out with only a few clinging crumbs.
2. Take it out of the oven and cool before cutting. Or pile with vanilla ice cream and have yourself a party in the kitchen.

After it comes off the heat

Let the pan settle before you slice, so the crumb stays together. Cover leftovers once they are cool.
