Mexican Brownies

I made this easy brownie for my up coming Mexican 30th. We have already had a few pieces and I can tell you it's a total winner.

What you'll need:

1 1/2 cups unsalted butter

3 cups white sugar

6 eggs

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 1/4 cups unsweetened cocoa powder

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 3/4 teaspoons ground Mexican cinnamon (canela)

1/2 teaspoon ground pequin chile pepper

3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

3/4 teaspoon baking powder

What to do:

Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. Line a slice pan with baking paper.

Place the butter in a microwave-safe bowl, and cook on Medium until the butter is about half melted, about 1 minute. Mash the butter with sugar until well combined, and stir in eggs one at a time. Mix in vanilla extract.

Sift the cocoa, flour, cinnamon, pequin pepper, salt, and baking powder into a bowl. Mix the flour mixture into the butter mixture, stirring to blend well, and pour the batter into the prepared slice pan.

Bake in the oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool in the pan.

Enjoy. x
