Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup mashed avocado (about 2 medium avocados)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8×8 inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the granulated sugar and softened butter until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Add the mashed avocado to the wet ingredients and mix until smooth.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  10. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting and serving.

Notes

  • Ensure your avocados are ripe for easy mashing and a smooth texture.
  • For an extra fudgy brownie, do not overbake.
  • You can substitute half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for added fiber.
  • Add chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans for extra crunch.
