Notes

*This recipe was written using an average of the dip and sweep method for measuring flour and the spoon and level method. If you are using a scale, you will need to add 3/4 oz or 22 g to the measurement for each cup of flour.

Expert Tips:

Do not over-mix the brownie batter.
40 minutes bake time yields a set but still gooey brownie. 45 minutes bake time yields a completely set, but still moist and fudgy brownie.
Let the brownie cool for at least 10-20 minutes for the best texture and flavor!
