Description

Who doesn't love a good brownie? But what if you don't have any chocolate on hand? No worries! This easy brownie recipe uses cocoa powder to give you that rich, chocolatey flavor without needing any actual chocolate.

Prep Time

10 minutes

Cook Time

25-30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk or electric mixer

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease your baking pan.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat together the sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Pour the batter into the greased baking pan and smooth out the top with a spatula.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, try adding 1/2 cup of chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the batter.
