Rich Fudgy Brownies

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and position rack in the center of the oven. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan or line with parchment paper.

Melt the Unsalted Butter (1 cup) in a medium saucepan. Add the Granulated Sugar (2 cups) and whisk until well combined. Add the Farmhouse Eggs® Large Brown Eggs (4) and Pure Vanilla Extract (1/2 tsp) and whisk until well blended.

In a large separate bowl whisk together the Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (3/4 cup), Unbleached All-Purpose Flour (2/3 cup), Baking Powder (1/2 tsp) and Salt (1/2 tsp). Transfer butter mixture to bowl with flour and stir with spatula or wooden spoon until batter is smooth.

Spread into prepared pan and bake for approximately 37-40 minutes. Insert a pairing knife or steak knife straight into center. If it comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs, the brownies are done.

Let cool completely in pan on rack. Brownies can be made two to three days in advance.
