- 4 large eggs room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cocoa powder unsweetened

Instructions

Notes
For an extra indulgent touch, swirl in peanut butter, caramel, or sprinkle sea salt before baking. You can also top cooled brownies with melted chocolate or a dusting of powdered sugar. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for 3 months.
