Cocoa Brownies


By my standard, a brownie is not a brownie if it is cake-like. As far as I am concerned, a brownie should have a consistency more like fudge than like a baked good. Actually, you cannot legally call it a brownie if it's cake like. That would be chocolate cake sans frosting. 

I like Alton Brown's brownies. Though the show recipe and the recipe on Food Network are slightly different (he has you sift all the dry ingredients together on the show while he has you add the sugars only to the eggs at first, then add the rest of the dry goods in the printed version) I went with the one from the show. And, while chocolaty, I think they would be even tastier using dutched chocolate rather than regular cocoa. And honestly, I don't mind testing out a few theories on building the best brownie. Not at all.
