While these Super Simple Brownies are indeed super simple to mix together, they still pack a chocolatey punch! For me, the perfect brownie has a texture almost like fudge – smooth, dense and chocolatey, with a thin crust on the top. I like mine with a little extra texture, so I throw in some crumbled walnuts that act as surprise crunches when you bite into each brownie square.
This recipe is so simple to follow and the preparation time is really quick. Brownies keep for a long time, but I always enjoy having a couple fresh from the oven, with some ice-cream or cream melting over the top!
To make Super Simple Brownies, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Lightly grease a 9 x 13 inch baking dish or pan.
Melt the butter in a large pan over a medium heat. Remove the pan from the heat.
Mix the sugar into the butter. Add the cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and eggs, beating well. Then gradually fold in the flour, baking powder and salt until fully combined. Lastly, sprinkle in the walnuts and fold through until evenly distributed.
Pour the mixture into the pan and spread out with a spatula. Bake the brownies for 20-30 minutes, until the top becomes springy to the touch.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool, before slicing into squares and serving warm.

Yum!
I made these brownies for my son's birthday, and they were a hit! The texture was so fudgy, just like I like. Adding walnuts made them extra special. We devoured them warm with ice cream, which was a lovely touch that brought us all together.
These brownies are simply the best! My kids and I whipped them up last weekend. The smell filled the house and we enjoyed them warm with ice cream. Just perfect for our family movie night!
Really super simple brownies. Like in my favorite coffee shop!
