- 1/3 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 tsp. baking powder
- 1/4 tsp. of salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup of vegetable oil – or melted unsalted butter – *see notes below to decide which you’ll want to use
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- Optional Extra Ingredients…
- 1/2 cup Walnuts

Notes
- *We tested the recipe with butter and with oil. The oil in our opinion made a more fudge like brownie while the butter made a more cake like brownie.
- *Another tip for getting a fudgy consisty – if that’s what you like – is to NOT over mix the eggs. The longer you mix them in, the more air you will create – making a cake like brownie.
