Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter
2 cups white sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground Mexican cinnamon (canela)
¼ teaspoon ground pequin chile pepper
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

Melt the butter halfway in the microwave. Mix it with sugar until fully combined.

Then, incorporate the eggs one by one, mixing well after each addition.

Stir in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, sift together the cocoa powder, flour, cinnamon, chili pepper, salt, and baking powder.

Gradually add any salt that was retained in the sifter.

Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, blending until everything is well combined. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.

Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for a while before using the parchment paper handles to remove them for slicing.
