Rich Chocolate Brownies

I just made this.. It's super simple and taste absolutely delicious!!

Prep : 15mins
Bake : 25mins + cooling
Yeild : 12 Servings

1 cup Sugar
2 Eggs
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
125gms Butter, Melted
1/2 cup Plain Flour
1/3 cup Cocoa Powder
1/4 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/4 teaspoon Salt

1. Preheat oven to 175 degrees Celsius and line and grease a 8 inch square tin. Instead of greasing the tin, I usually just use parchment paper (best invention ever) and line the tin till the top. So it's easier to lift the brownie out of the tin once it's cooked.

2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the sugar, eggs and vanilla. Add butter and mix well. Sift and combine the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt; add them to batter and mix well.

3. Pour mixture into the tin. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack.

4. For the frosting, I just melted chocolate and spread it over the brownie. The brownies taste nice without the frosting but the frosting adds an extra ummmpphhh to it.
