Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare an 8-inch by 8-inch square baking pan by greasing it with butter or baking spray and lining it with parchment paper for easy removal after baking.
Melt the butter in your mixing bowl in the microwave.
Add the sugar, eggs and vanilla to the melted butter and whisk very well to combine.
Add the flour, cocoa powder and salt on top of the wet ingredients and combine everything together with a silicone spatula.
Pour the batter immediately into the prepared pan and smooth out the top of the batter.
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 22-25 minutes, or until the centre is just barely set and not jiggly.
Let the brownies cool in the pan before removing them (using the parchment paper) and setting them on a cutting board.
Slice them using a large knife in a downward motion (avoid using a sawing motion as this can create a lot of crumbs). Enjoy!

Notes

Storage Instructions

Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.

Freezing Instructions

Freeze the brownies in an airtight container or freezer-safe bag with wax paper or parchment paper between the layers to prevent sticking. These brownies last well in the freezer for about 3 months.
