Ingredients
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
⅓ cup cocoa powder
½ cup gluten-free 1:1 baking flour
¼ tsp salt
½ cup chocolate chips (optional for extra fudginess)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 baking pan with parchment.
2. Whisk melted butter and sugar together until glossy.
3. Add eggs and vanilla; whisk until smooth.
4. Stir in cocoa powder, gluten-free flour, and salt until just combined — do not overmix.
5. Fold in chocolate chips if using.
6. Spread batter into the baking pan.
7. Bake 18–22 minutes, depending on how fudgy you like them.
8. Cool at least 15 minutes before slicing for clean edges.
Notes
For extra fudgy brownies, remove from the oven when the center is slightly soft.
Add a sprinkle of flaky sea salt on top for a gourmet finish.
Make dairy-free by using vegan butter and dairy-free chocolate chips.
Brownies taste even better the next day!
