Ruby’s Basic Brownies

Ruby’s Basic Brownies. This is the PERFECT brownie recipe.

In the picture, the brownies are topped with roasted marshmallows. With or without a topping, these will have your little sister eating out of your hand!

1 cup butter
4 squares UNSWEETENED chocolate
4 eggs
2 cups sugar
1 cup flour
2/3 cup chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 375 F/190 C.

Grease two 8 inch x 8 inch/20 cm x 20 cm pans. Grease them well. Line them with parchment paper if you have it.

Put the chocolate and butter into a 4 cup glass microwave safe measuring cup. It will melt faster if you chop it up first. Heat at low power for 4 minutes or until melted. Stop the microwave now and then to stir the chocolate and butter. (You can also do your melting in a double boiler.)

Mix eggs and sugar. Use an electric mixer or a spoon.

Add the melted chocolate and butter. Beat well.

Using a wooden spoon, stir in the flour and chocolate chips. Stir until it is all mixed up well and you can’t see any flour.

Scrape the batter into the two prepared pans.

Bake at 375 F or 190 C for 25 minutes.

When the brownies are done, take them out of the oven.

Cool the brownies at room temperature.

A basic brownies recipe that anyone can make.
