Brown Brown Brownies
Brown sugar and brown butter make these brownies extra special!
Ingredients
- 10 tablespoons (140 g) unsalted butter, cut into tablespoons
- 1 cup (120 g) all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup (64 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (200 g) packed light or dark brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Place the butter in a medium saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the butter begins to foam. Continue cooking until brown specks begin to form at the bottom of the pan. Remove from heat and pour into a large mixing bowl and allow to cool.
- Preheat oven to 350° (175°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan. Line with parchment paper so that the paper overhangs on two opposite sides.
- Whisk together the flour, cocoa, and salt. Set aside.
- Add the brown sugar to the cooled butter in mixing bowl. Beat until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla.
- Gradually add the flour mixture, mixing just until combined.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan. Bake 30-35 minutes, or until a pick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. Cool completely in the pan. Then, using the overhanging parchment, lift out the brownies onto a cutting board and cut into bars.
