Recipe for Red Velvet Brownies
 
Ingredients
  • 3 Tablespoons Cocoa Powder
  • 1oz Red Food Coloring
  • 2 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract, divided
  • ½ cup Unsalted Butter, room temp
  • 1½ cups Granulated Sugar
  • 2 large Eggs, room temperature
  • 1¼ cups All-Purpose Flour
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare an 8″ square pan with baking spray.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the cocoa powder, food coloring, and 1 teaspoon of the vanilla. Mix until its a thick paste with no lumps.
  3. In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the butter and sugar on medium, until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then mix in the remaining teaspoon of vanilla. Add in the cocoa mixture and turn the mixer to medium and beat until uniform in color. Slowly add in the flour and salt and mix on low speed, until combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Remove the bowl and stir with a wooden spoon a couple of times making sure the flour is incorporated.
  5. Spread the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow brownies to completely cool in the pan on a baking rack, about an hour. Remove from the pan. Cut and serve.
