Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Grease and flour a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. In a large bowl, combine the sugar, cocoa powder and butter and stir. Add the eggs, one at a time, stirring only until blended. Add the flour, vanilla and walnuts. Stir until all the ingredients are blended, but do not overmix. Transfer the mixture into the pan and shake to even out. Bake in the top half of the oven for 20 to 25 minutes until the center is firm to the touch.

These are excellent. Not too cakey, not too gooey. Not too sweet. Great chocolate flavor. Simple to make. Only thing I changed was to add a pinch of salt.

These were easy for sure, but not as satisfying as other recipes. I used the less flour version as well. But still I think you want a version where the sugar is incorporated into the butter on the stovetop

Way too dry, even with underbaking. If I try again, will use one cup of flour like another user suggested.

I would bake the brownies for 20 minutes at most, otherwise they come out dry. Less flour may also help.
