Homemade Brownies From Scratch
For this brownie recipe I use einkorn flour (like all my wheat based recipes), however, you can use any type of wheat flour you'd like to use and they will still turn out perfectly!
When I say this recipe is crazy easy, I really mean it.
Just take all your ingredients in whatever order you grab them in (except the chocolate chips), dump them unceremoniously into the bowl of an electric mixer, and mix.
Don't worry about overmixing - if you happen to overmix, the brownies will be a little less dense than normal. No biggie.
Add the chocolate chips to the batter and mix briefly. Then pour your batter into a buttered 9x12 baking dish and bake 350° for 35-45 minutes or until clean toothpick.
Allow to cool before serving for the perfect bakery brownie texture!

Make sure you have some cold milk or vanilla ice cream on hand, and you have the perfect dessert for any occasion!
Toppings for Your Homemade Brownies
While we usually enjoy our from-scratch brownies as they are, sometimes we go all out and spruce them up with a topping or two!
Here are a few of our favorite toppings for homemade brownies:
Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream: While vanilla is traditional (and we love it too), homemade mint chocolate chip is a solid choice!
Chocolate Syrup: If you opt for the vanilla ice cream route, this homemade chocolate syrup is a must have addition to the mix!
Marshmallows: Marshmallows turn into gooey, yummy melted goodness when placed on a warm brownie. If you want to try this, place your marshmallows on the brownies as soon as they come out of the oven!
Here is the homemade marshmallow recipe that we've perfected over the years.
