Fudge Brownies

 Ingredients: 

• 3/4 cup of flour 
• 2/3 cup of cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar 
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 and 1/2 cups granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Grease or line your 13 x 9 in pan with parchment paper. Set aside. (For thicker brownies use a 8x8 inch pan.)

Step 2:  In a large bowl whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, powdered sugar and salt. Set aside.

Step 3: In a separate bowl mix together the granulated sugar and olive oil until well combined. 

Step 4: Beat in the eggs one at a time, making sure the first egg is well combined before adding the second. 

Step 5: Mix in your vanilla extract and water. 

Step 6: Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Your batter should be on the thicker side.

Step 7: Once everything is combined turn off your mixer and with a spatula scrape the sides and bottom of my bowl to make sure everything is fully incorporated. 

Step 8: Add the batter to your prepared baking pan, spread batter evenly and bake for 28 to 35 minutes or until your toothpick comes out with only a few crumbs attached.

(If you are using a smaller pan for thicker brownies you will likely need to increase the baking time.)

Enjoy!
