Fudgy Chocolate Brownies

Hi, hi!! I took a short break coz really couldn't squeeze in the time to blog, although all the pictures had been taken (the easiest part!). Plus I had been feeling super tired these last few weeks and I just want to slack.. *yawnz* Aaaaaanyway, these brownies are da bomb, I kid you not! 

I don't seem to be able to get that classic thin, crispy layer at the top but these brownies are so addictive and I really can't wait for you guys to try it out! It's not sickeningly sweet and it has just the right amount of fudgy-ness that is not too gooey, made from pure cocoa with no additional chocolate (perfect for lazy bakers like me!)  and the best part is, you can eat either warm or straight from the fridge! How I wish I still have a container full of them in the fridge! *grins*

Fudgy Chocolate Brownies

Ingredients

- 115g butter

- 225g sugar

- 2 eggs

- 1 teaspoon of vanilla

- 55g plain flour

- 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder

- 40g cocoa powder

- a pinch of salt

( I prefer my brownies to be plain but you can add about 50g of walnuts or chocolate chips or any other additional top-ups)

Method

(Pre-heat oven to 170-180 Degrees Celcius)

1. Melt butter over low heat, remove from heat

2. Add sugar and whisk until well-mixed ( this process will help to cool the butter so that the eggs will not curdle when added to this batter)

3. Add eggs, 1 at a time, whisking till smooth

4. Add vanilla

5. Sift the flour, baking powder, cocoa and salt and mix well

6. Add the sifted ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until everything is just well-blended; DO NOT over-whisk!

7. Pour into a 10" x 10" pan and bake for 20mins or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean

8. Cool on the rack before cutting

9. Store in an air-tight container, the brownies can keep in the fridge for about 2 weeks

Enjoy!! =)

Trying to get an artistic shot..fail!! hahahahaa!
