  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter.
  4. Stir in sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
  5. Add cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir until just combined (don’t overmix!).
  6. Fold in chocolate chips for extra indulgence.
  7. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
  8. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  9. Allow brownies to cool completely in the pan.
  10. Use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out heart-shaped brownies. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

For a lighter texture, whip the eggs for a minute before adding them to the butter mixture. Swap out all-purpose flour with whole wheat for a healthier twist.
