Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 cup chopped dark chocolate
- 3/4 cup thick Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and lightly grease with butter.
- Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt into a bowl. Set aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt butter and chopped dark chocolate in short bursts, stirring until smooth.
- Whisk sugar, Greek yogurt, and vanilla into the melted chocolate mixture until well combined.
- Fold in dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix. Fold in chopped walnuts.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 35–40 minutes, checking at the 35-minute mark. A toothpick should come out with moist crumbs.
- Cool completely before removing from the pan and cutting into squares.
Notes
- Use a mix of dark and semi-sweet chocolate for deeper flavor.
- Replace walnuts with chocolate chunks or omit for nut-free version.
- Greek yogurt gives best texture; strain regular yogurt if using.
- Drizzle melted chocolate over cooled brownies for a dessert-style finish.
- Don’t overbake to keep the brownies moist and fudgy.
