Brownies used to be the one thing I would bake back in the BC (before child) years. Once a month, like clock work, I would make a batch of brownies. Martha White Brownie mix! It came in a bag and they were our fave!
Don and I have always been pretty compatible when it comes to brownies - gutter colors not so much (but that is another story). Our brownies must have a crusty, crackly skin on top - that is a must!! They have to be rich and chocolaty, and they can't be too sweet or fudgy!! Clearly we are brownie connoisseurs!!
These Easy One Bowl Brownies fit the bill! With a crusty, crackly top and a chewy, not too fudgy bottom they are the right consistency for sure! So, do they satisfy when you have a crazy hankering for chocolate? OH YES THEY DO!! Filled with yummy chocolate chips, these brownies are chocolicious!! So pour yourself a nice cold glass of milk and sit down and take a chocolate break! You deserve it!!

Easy One Bowl Brownies
Published 02/17/2014
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups sugar (I use Dixie Crystals)
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup cocoa powder
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter (1 1/2 sticks)
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees F and prepare a 13"x9" baking dish by lining it with parchment paper. Let the parchment hang over the sides. If you grease the baking dish it will hold the parchment in place.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups sugar, 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup cocoa powder, and 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt.
- In a large microwave safe measuring cup, melt 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter. Allow to cool just a bit and then whisk in 3 eggs until well blended. Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir, by hand, just until combined. Fold in 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional). The batter will be thick.
- Spread brownie mix in baking dish and bake for 30-40 minutes until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Mine were done at 35 minutes. Allow to cool about 10 minutes in the pan. Remove from pan using parchment and allow to cool completely before cutting. Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteYAY! I'm so glad you like them, Angela! Thanks so much for stopping by to let me know. That makes my day :) Have a great week!!
DeleteVery disappointed that i wasted all those ingredients. It was way too little to fill a 13X9 pan. I put it in a 11X8 and it still didn't fill it up. The taste was fine but but it was overbaked at 30 mins. It was like mini chocolate cake, definitely not brownies.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry they didn't work out for you. I make these in a 13x9 pan regularly and they turn out as pictured. Yes, the batter is spread thin, but they will plump up a bit when cooked to be the size you see pictured. The only thing I can think is the batter was over mixed. Did you maybe use an electric mixer to combine the ingredients or mix until smooth? This would cause the brownies to be cake-like. Again, sorry they weren't to your liking.
DeleteThere are chocolate chips in the ingredients list, but not in the instructions. When do you add them?
ReplyDeleteGood catch! Thanks for letting me know. I will update the recipe. You fold the chocolate chips in after combining the wet & dry ingredients and before spreading brownie mix into baking dish. Thanks! Happy New Year ~Marion
