Most definitely this is the best homemade brownie I’ve ever made, and I do not want to change this recipe. This chocolate treat is not only super simple to make, but also moist, soft and dense.

  1 cup = 227 grams

• Egg: 

  5

• Granulated White Sugar: 

  1 cup = 200 grams

Directions

I love elegant, fancy, creative desserts, but sometimes during the winter time, all I really need is a cozy place on the warm couch, a little good music, and a homemade dark chocolate brownie with a cup of milk. Why complicate something so deliciously simple?

Let’s get started:

1. In a bowl mix together flour, cacao powder, salt. Set aside.
2. Place the dark chocolate and butter in a heat-proof bowl over a pot of simmering water. Stir until fully melted, then remove from the heat.
3. Beat the eggs with the sugar, then mix together. – your brownie becomes MOIST!
4. Gradually pour in the melted chocolate.
5. Gently fold the flour, cocoa powder into the mixture with a rubber spatula.
6. Pour the batter into a cake pan which has baking paper.
7. Sprinkle with your favourite nuts the top of the brownie.
8. Put it into the oven and bake at 180 C degrees for 35 minutes.
9. Get out the brownie from the oven and allow it to cool completely while still in the pan.

Boooooon Appetit!
