Ingredients
I can’t stress how important ingredients and measurements are. The most important ingredients are:
- sugar
- molasses
- butter
- cocoa
Make sure you measure all of the ingredients accurately, otherwise your poor brownies may suffer. Too much sugar may result in burning, caramelization, or over-sweetness. Too much butter can cause the brownies to feel oily. Too much cocoa makes the brownies dense and tough. Finally, too much molasses causes the brownies to taste far too much like medicine.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients
- make sure that all ingredients are room temperature
- don’t over bake!!
