Servings: persons

10 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, Cubed
3/4 cups Granulated Sugar
1/2 cups Light Brown Sugar
3/4 cups Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
1/2 teaspoons Salt
1 Tablespoon Instant Coffee Granules
1/2 Tablespoons Baking Powder
2 whole Large Eggs, Cold
2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
2/3 cups All-purpose Flour
1/2 cups Chocolate Chunks Or Chocolate Chips

1
Preheat oven to 350u00b0F. Line a 9 x 9 or 8 x 8 pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Lightly spray with cooking spray or grease with butter. Set aside.
2
Add butter to a medium saucepan and cook over medium heat until light brown or caramel in color, 5-10 minutes. Make sure to keep and eye on it so butter does not burn. It also helps to use a light colored saucepan for this.
3
Pour browned butter into a large bowl along with both sugars, cocoa powder, salt, instant coffee granules and baking powder. Stir until combined and allow to rest for 5 minutes or until the mixture has cooled down.
4
Stir in eggs and vanilla and mix until batter has a nice sheen to it. Fold in flour and stir until combined. (Do not over-mix.)
5
Pour batter into prepared pan and bake 20-25 minutes or until top is set and an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely and lift out the aluminum foil or parchment paper.
6
Cut into 9 brownies and serve.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
