Recipe Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • 6 tablespoons cocoa powder

  • 1 ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten

  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Recipe Directions



1. Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Skillet

Preheat the oven to 350ºF and butter your Larder & Vine Skillet to prevent sticking.




2. Make the Chocolate Base

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, and cocoa powder. Mix until well combined, then heat the mixture in the microwave until the sugar has dissolved and the batter is smooth.




3. Mix the Batter

Into the same bowl (or a large mixing bowl), add the vanilla extract, eggs, and flour to the chocolate mixture. Stir until the batter is smooth and evenly blended, then pour it into your greased skillet.




4. Bake the Brownie

Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, checking doneness with a toothpick. If the toothpick comes out clean, the brownie is ready. If it comes out with batter, continue baking and repeat the test until done.




5. Finish and Serve

Once baked, remove the skillet from the oven and let the brownie cool slightly. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired, then slice into six triangles. Serve warm, and elevate each slice with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the perfect finishing touch!
