Recipe tips

  • Make sure to not overbake your brownies, you want them to be slightly underdone as they will continue to bake a bit when removed from the oven.
  • Let them cool: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting. This helps them set and develop their fudgy texture for a perfect treat!.
  • Measure the flour properly by spooning the flour into the cup and leveling it off the top.
  • Parchment paper or aluminum foil makes it easier to remove the brownies.
