So much for eating healthier, right? A lady can indulge...once a week! After this week of class, I think I deserve a little decadence! Let's just say, phlebotomy class is not exactly fun when you are the 'patient'. I decided to whip up some brownies since I have all the ingredients. This recipe can be baked in an 8x8 inch pan or you can double the recipe and use a 9x13 inch pan. If you plan on baking with a large pan instead, allow the brownies to cook for about 25 - 30 minutes and make sure to grease the pan a little so the brownie does not stick. Just make sure to watch it to see how far along it is! You can forgo the liner if you have some oil spray on hand so that they do not stick to the pan. Next time, I will make denser, more brownie-like brownies to post up! Enjoy!
Yields: 28-30 mini brownies
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 eggs
1 cup white sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking powder
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a mini cupcake pan or use line the pan with liners; set aside.
2. Melt the butter in the microwave for 30 - 45 seconds.
3. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk until evenly mixed. Add in the melted butter, sugar, and vanilla extract and whisk until just combined. Whisk in the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder.
4. Fill the mini cupcake liner 2/3 full of batter and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes. Make sure not to overcook the brownies!
How can I make this even more indulgent, you ask? Why, with a dollop of Nutella, of course! After these bake and cool down, they deflate a little, thereby creating a little well in the center. It is practically begging you to add Nutella! So that is exactly what I did. Enjoy and happy baking!
