Deep-Dish Brownies

Recipe View Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan with butter or cooking spray. (5 minutes)

Recipe View In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined. (3 minutes)

Recipe View Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated into the batter before adding the next. This helps create a smooth and glossy brownie texture. (5 minutes)

Recipe View In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and sea salt to ensure even distribution. (2 minutes)

Recipe View Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed or with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to tough brownies. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly with a spatula. (2 minutes)

Recipe View Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the brownies begin to pull away from the sides of the pan and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. (45 minutes)

Recipe View Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. This will allow the brownies to set properly and prevent them from crumbling. (60 minutes)
