Ingredients
  

For the brownie batter
  • 1/2 cup butter (melted)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature) Make sure they are at room temperature for better mixing.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons red food coloring This is what gives the brownies their signature color.
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder (unsweetened) Natural cocoa powder can be substituted.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark) Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate chips.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine melted butter and sugar. Stir until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the eggs one by one, mixing well after each addition. Then, add vanilla extract and red food coloring, blending until vibrant.
  4. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
Baking
  1. Transfer the brownie batter into a greased baking pan, spreading evenly.
  2. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the edges are set and the center is slightly gooey.
  3. Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. Refrigerate for longer shelf life or freeze wrapped in plastic wrap and foil for up to 3 months. For extra fudginess, slightly underbake the brownies.
