Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup melted butter cooled
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ⅔ cup whole wheat flour
  • ⅔ cup cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Melt butter in a mixing bowl, and allow to cool back down. Whisk in eggs and set aside.
  • Use a whisk to combine remaining ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add wet to dry and stir until just combined.
  • Allow batter to rest for 15-20 minutes while you heat the oven to 350°F.
  • Grease or line a square baking pan with parchment paper.
  • Spread batter into prepared pan - it will be thick and need help evening out!
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until set in the center and the edges begin to release from the pan.
  • Allow to cool in the pan before serving.

Notes

  • You can use organic unbleached all-purpose flour in place of whole wheat, and skip the rest time.
  • If grinding your own flour, I recommend soft white wheat berries in this recipe.
