How to Make Brownies from Scratch
Hello and welcome to In the Kitchen with Matt, I am your host, Matt Taylor.
Today, we are making brownies, from scratch, yummy!
Let's get baking.
First what we need to do is preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
On to the ingredients, for our ingredients we have 1 cup of sugar, one half cup of oil,
I am using Canola oil, we have two large eggs, one half cup of all purpose flour, we have
a half of a bag, or about 6 ounces of milk chocolate chips, we have one third cup of
cocoa powder, we have one teaspoon of vanilla extract, we have one fourth teaspoon of baking
powder, and one fourth teaspoon of salt.
Ok, first let us take our sugar and put it in this bowl, and then we will take our oil
and put it in there as well.
Ok, and now we are going to take a wooden spoon and mix it all together, I would avoid
using a hand mixer or any kind of a mixer, because you can over mix it, and we don't
want to over mix it.
Ok, now let us take our vanilla extract and that in there.
Let us go ahead and put our eggs in.
Then we will give it a good mix.
Ok, now I am going to take this sifter, and I am going to put my flour in there, I am
going to take my cocoa powder and put that in there, and my baking powder and my salt.
And we will go ahead and sift this all in there.
And if you don't have a sifter, then don't worry about it; you can just mix it in.
Now we are going to mix it all together, scrape the sides.
Ok, until it looks about like that.
Now I am going to take my chocolate chips, and put them in there, give it a nice mix.
Ok, now I have a 7x11 pan, you can use a 9x9, and I have it sprayed with cooking spray.
And now we are going to just go ahead and put our batter in there, brownie batter.
Ok, make sure to get the sides; we will use a spatula here in a minute.
Go ahead and make sure to get it all of it out.
Ok once it is in there, we will give it a good shake.
Make sure it is nice and level.
And we will go ahead and bake this in the oven for about twenty minutes.
And this is how it will look when it is done.
It is important to let it cool completely before you cut into it, that way it will keep
its shape when you cut it.
All right, our brownies are done they look amazing.
Now what you can do to finish these off is you can put some powder sugar on them like
I did with this one, or you can put some frosting on them, whatever you like to do, or just
eat them plain, and they will taste fantastic however you do it.
