Bake for 15-20 minutes. Check by inserting a toothpick about 2 inches from the edge—it should come out clean, but the center should still feel a bit soft. Let the brownies cool completely in the tin before slicing.

Good to know.
Cook's tip
- Use high-quality cocoa powder for the best chocolate flavor.
- Avoid overmixing the batter to keep the brownies tender and fudgy.
- Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick; it should come out with a few moist crumbs.

Serving ideas
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Fresh berries or a drizzle of caramel sauce also pair wonderfully to add a touch of brightness and contrast.
Storage & leftovers
Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, keep them in the fridge for about a week or freeze for up to 3 months, wrapping them tightly to maintain freshness.
