Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tablespoon red food coloring
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking pan.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, and salt, then set it aside.
  3. In another bowl, mix the melted butter and sugar until well combined, forming a lovely silky texture.
  4. Add the eggs, buttermilk, red food coloring, and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, and mix well until smooth and luscious.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
  6. If using, fold in the white chocolate chips for an extra layer of sweetness and creaminess.
  7. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Let cool before cutting into squares. Enjoy your festive brownies warm or at room temperature!
