Ingredients
Scale
- 1 stick or 1/2 cup of butter
- 3.5 oz or 1 bar of quality chocolate (I used semi-sweet chocolate)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon real vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F and spray an 8 or 9-inch round or an 8×8 inch square baking pan with cooking spray.
- Melt the butter in the microwave or on the stove over low heat. Break the chocolate bar into little bits over the hot melted butter and stir. With a bit of stirring, it should melt nicely into the butter.
- Add the sugar and stir, then the eggs, one at a time, stirring to mix each of them into the batter. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gently stir in the cocoa powder, enough to break up any lumps there may be, but be gentle and stop stirring as soon as the cocoa powder is mixed in. It’ll be a nice thick batter now.
- Spread the batter as evenly as you can manage in your prepared pan. Bake at 350 F. for 20 – 25 minutes or until the edges pull away from the sides a bit.
- Let cool, then cut into wedges or squares for serving.
