Brownies from scratch made in one bowl…no special kitchen tools required…so good and so easy!

Make Brownies from Scratch…no box mix needed

Yo don’t need a box of brownie mix to make fantastic no fail brownies. The best thing is that you probably have everything you need to make them in your kitchen right now. When Kyle (my husband) was in about fifth grade, he came up with this simple brownie recipe from scratch for a school assignment. I’m not quite sure how he has an original recipe (as a fifth grader).

Cocoa Powder Brownies

We use unsweetened cocoa powder for these brownies. We love Hershey’s brand cocoa powder, but there are other brands that are great too, like: Guittard, Girardelli or Nestle.

Ingredients to make Brownies from Scratch

2 sticks of butter room temp
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
2 cups flour
4 Tbs. cocoa powder
1 tsp. Vanilla
1/2 tsp salt

How to make Brownies from Scratch

Mix all together and bake at 350 for 30 minutes.

Since his fifth grade year, this recipe has stayed a classic in his family, and is now always referred to as “Kyle’s Brownies”. If you like more cake-like brownies, then you will love this recipe. I’m a big fan of box mix brownies, and sometimes you just need something chocolate-y, but you might not have a box of brownie mix, but you probably DO have all the ingredients to make brownies from scratch!
