Detailed Directions and Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Prepare a square baking pan by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper for easy removal of the brownies.
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. This ensures that all dry ingredients are well combined and free of lumps.
Step 3: Combine Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until well incorporated. Add the milk and vanilla extract to the mixture and continue to whisk until smooth.
Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can affect the texture of your brownies.
Step 5: Add Optional Ingredients
If desired, fold in any optional ingredients such as chopped nuts or chocolate chips at this stage to add extra texture and flavor.
Step 6: Bake the Brownies
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Step 7: Cool and Cut
Once baked, remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Afterward, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into squares.
