Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled
- 8 oz semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9 inch baking pan.
- In a bowl, whisk together melted butter and sugar until combined. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla.
- In another bowl, sift together cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Gradually incorporate dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Pour brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
- For the mousse, melt semisweet chocolate in a heatproof bowl over simmering water until smooth. Let it cool slightly.
- Whip heavy cream in a separate bowl until soft peaks form. Fold half into the melted chocolate, then gently fold in the remaining whipped cream.
- Once brownies have cooled completely, pour mousse over them and chill for about 3 hours before serving.
