My raspberry spiked triple choc ones are good, you don't have to raspberry spike them, or add the white choc either if you just wanted plain choc ones

Omigosh, omigosh, omigosh...
Do you like soft, chewy ones?
I'm a brownie fiend so have spent a looooong time finding the BEST ever recipe... Mmmmm
I love this one too because it's so easy and involves very little work and next to no dishes at all  (Handy when you don't have a dishwasher like me)
This recipe makes 16, but I normally double it because I generally scoff at least 6 of them fresh from the oven... Hahaha (and I wonder why my ass resembles a golf ball with all it's dimples!)
1/2 cup butter
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Frosting: (optional... I normally make them without)
3 tablespoons butter, softened
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup confectioners' sugar
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8 inch square pan.
In a large saucepan, melt 1/2 cup butter. Remove from heat, and stir in sugar, eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Beat in 1/3 cup cocoa, 1/2 cup flour, salt, and baking powder. Spread batter into prepared pan.
Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Do not overcook.
To make frosting: Combine 3 tablespoons butter, 3 tablespoons cocoa, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and 1 cup confectioners' sugar. Frost brownies while they are still warm.
I sincerely hope you enjoy these even HALF as much as I do!

Oh... Just make sure you don't BEAT the mixture... Mix gently, as beating will cause the mixture to become light and airy, thus resulting in cake like brownies., which generally aren't as nice as the tasty fudgy treats that you'd hope for

Ohhh Serenity I just made these this afternoon and they are TO DIE FOR. Didn't double the recipe but so should have... wondering if I should just eat them all and hide all evidence from DH And it's the easiest brownie recipe ever! Will definitely be making these again, and doubling it next time!

Yummy, my 2nd batch is in the oven.
I cant believe how easy it was and its a really good recipe for getting Keira involved too, just had to stop her eating it all before we baked them
ETA: Mmm now I know these are already delish but I thought i'd try adding some chocolate chips and OMG they are soooooo good!

Let me know what you think?
I'll be making some shortly, once all the dinner dishes are cleared.
I'm having a super domestic day.
I've made Afghans and Peppermint Slice *drool*
Yum!

Oh, and another tip too...
If you want super chewy ones, use 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1/2 cup white sugar instead of the 1 cup white sugar. And add an extra 1/4 cup melted butter and an extra egg yolk.
Mmmmm.... My house smells SO good
