To make these Gingerbread Brownie Bars, you'll need the following ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup molasses
To begin, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined. Add in the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and molasses.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth out the top with a spatula.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies comes out clean. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing and serving.
