Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350Ā°F (175Ā°C).
- Prepare an 8Ć8-inch (20Ć20 cm) baking dish by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.

- Mix everything together gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges look set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Notes
- Use high-quality cocoa powder for the best flavor.
- Do not skip the salt as it enhances the sweetness.
- Avoid overmixing the batter to keep the brownies fudgy.
- Check for doneness a few minutes early to prevent overbaking.
- Let the brownies cool before cutting for a cleaner slice.
