Equipment

  • OTG /Microwave Oven

Ingredients

  • 175 grams All-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 35 grams Cocoa Powder (⅓ cup + 1 tablespoon)
  • Pinch Table Salt
  • 130 grams Powdered White Sugar/Caster Sugar
  • 100 ml Hot Milk (not boiling)
  • 100 grams Unsalted Butter
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  • Measure and sift the dry ingredients, i.e., flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Also measure and sift sugar in the same bowl. Keep aside.
  • In a microwave safe bowl, melt the butter just until it starts melting. Do not over-heat the butter. To this, add Vanilla extract and hot milk.
  • Add the wet ingredients immediately to the dry ingredients and combine.
  • Transfer the batter to an 8x8 square baking dish and bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes at 170°C.
  • Once done, let the brownies rest for at least 3-4 hours before consumption for best flavours.

Notes

You may add chocolate chips, chocolate chunks, Oreo pieces, hazelnuts or walnuts(like I did) or simply few m&ms if making for kids.
Making the brownies one day ahead before consumption will bring out the best flavour in these delicious brownies. It's the same for all brownies though.
Use a good quality cocoa powder as most of the flavour comes from this single ingredient only.
