How to Make Heart Shaped Brownies
Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Step 2: Make the Batter
In a bowl, whisk melted butter and sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla and whisk until fully combined. Stir in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder until just mixed.
Step 3: Bake
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Step 4: Cool and Cut
Allow brownies to cool completely. Use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out heart shapes from the slab.
Step 5: Decorate and Serve
Dust with powdered sugar, drizzle with melted chocolate, or decorate as desired before serving.
