Fudgy Brownies

Cultural Context

Fudgy brownies originated in the United States in the late 19th century, likely as a result of a recipe mishap. They quickly became a beloved dessert, known for their rich, chocolatey flavor and chewy texture. Traditionally served at picnics and gatherings, brownies have evolved into countless variations, including those with nuts, frosting, or even swirls of cream cheese. Today, they are a staple in American baking, cherished for their simplicity and indulgence.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

2

Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

Melt the butter and chocolate together until smooth.

4

Remove from heat and stir in the white sugar and brown sugar until well combined.

5

Add the eggs and yolk one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

6

Stir in the vanilla and instant coffee until fully incorporated.
