How to cook deliciously - Best Brownies

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 13"-by-9" metal baking pan with cooking spray. Line pan with foil, leaving an overhang on 2 opposite sides. Grease foil with cooking spray. 

2. Stage

In a small pot over medium heat, melt butter. Remove from heat, add chocolate, and stir with a rubber spatula until melted and smooth. Stir in vanilla, espresso powder, and salt.

3. Stage

In a large bowl, whisk granulated sugar and brown sugar. Whisk in chocolate mixture until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, whisking to blend after each addition, then continue to whisk until batter is well combined, about 30 seconds more (this will help achieve a shiny, crackly top). Fold in flour and cocoa powder with a spatula just until combined. 

4. Stage

Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake brownie until puffed and set and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 22 to 28 minutes.

5. Stage

Let cool completely in pan. Using foil overhang, remove brownie from pan and cut into squares with a sharp knife.
