Brownie

A moist brownie is just as perfect for weekend treats as it is for gatherings. With a rich cocoa flavor and a soft, almost fudgy texture, this cake is sure to please both young and old. This recipe is easy to follow and guarantees a great result, perfect when you're craving something truly delicious in a short time.

• 250 g butter
• 400 g sugar
• 50 g cocoa powder
• 4 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla sugar
• 200 g all-purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt

• Melt the butter in a medium-sized saucepan.
• Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the sugar and cocoa, stirring to combine. (Let it cool slightly)
• Lightly whisk the eggs together and then stir them into the saucepan.
• Sift in the all-purpose flour, vanilla sugar, baking powder, and salt, and mix this into the batter.
• Pour the batter into a small, parchment-lined baking tray (about 20 × 30 cm). I used a round springform pan with a diameter of 27 cm.
• Bake the cake in the middle of the oven at 175°C for about 20 minutes.
• Cool the cake in the pan, first on the counter and then in the refrigerator for a couple of hours.
• Sift powdered sugar over the top before serving.

Let the brownie cool completely before cutting it, so you get nice, even pieces and the perfect texture. A light dusting of powdered sugar on top gives a simple yet elegant finish. Serve it with a scoop of ice cream or a cup of coffee and enjoy every single bite!
