Very Easy Brownie Recipe

This is my absolute go-to brownie recipe—so simple and delicious that I make it every time the family comes round. Without fail, there’s never a crumb left! Even when we don’t have guests, I’ll whip up a batch, slice it up, and pop it in the fridge. It’s perfect for a quick treat at home or tucked into the kids' packed lunches. These brownies never go to waste and are delicious every time!!

Tips / Notes

If you want to use dairy free butter I highly recommend the Flora plant butter which you can get from all the supermarkets
