1/2 cup unsalted butter, 1 stick
1 cup sugar
2 eggs

Cooks Notes
For best results, cover the pan of cooled brownies with cling wrap and place in the fridge overnight before cutting. This allows time for the flavors to develop and produces the most ultimate moist brownie.

Drizzle with dark chocolate if desired.
