Before you start to bake make sure you have the following items – a 8×8 inch baking pan, parchment paper, bowls, measuring cups and spoons, heatproof baking spatula, and whisk.

Ingredients :

  • 3 squares unsweetened chocolate (1 ounce each)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar (you can substitute sugar with Splenda, if you desire).
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour (spoon in level)

 

Preheat oven to 350° F.
Grease and line the pan with parchment paper.

In a small bowl, heat the squares of chocolate and the butter at 50% power in the microwave until the chocolate is melted (about 3 minutes), stirring halfway. Use a heatproof baking spatula to stir smooth.

In a big bowl, use the end of a whisk to break up the brown sugar until there are no lumps. Add the white sugar, cocoa powder, eggs, oil, and vanilla. Mix well. Use a baking spatula to scrape in the melted chocolate mixture. Blend well.

Add the flour a few heaping spoonfuls at a time. Mix well and scrape into the pan. Bake 25 minutes. Do not overbake or the brownies will not be fudgy. Cool completely in the pan before slicing. Top with glaze, if you desire.

Chocolate has an essential amino acid that produces serotonin which is responsible to lift our mood.
