Brown Sugar Brownies
Brown Sugar Brownies are a small-batch, one-bowl bake built on light brown sugar instead of white. The molasses in the sugar gives the squares a caramel edge that sits well against unsweetened chocolate, which keeps the sweetness in check. Coarsely chopped walnuts add crunch to a dense, fudgy crumb. With only six ingredients and no melting beyond the chocolate, they suit a baker who wants a quick tray.
Instructions
Heat the oven to 325°F. Grease an 8 x 8 x 2-inch square baking pan.
Beat the brown sugar and softened butter together until the mixture looks pale and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs, then beat in the melted chocolate until the batter is evenly colored.
Mix in the flour until no dry streaks remain, then stir in the chopped walnuts.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it into the corners. Bake for about 25 minutes.
Leave the brownies to cool in the pan, then cut them into squares. If you prefer, they can also be baked in a Dutch oven at moderately slow heat instead of in the baking pan.
