Ingredients
  

  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Method
 

  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter with both sugars. Stir in the cocoa powder and salt.
  2. Whisk in the egg and vanilla until the batter is glossy and smooth.
  3. Fold in the flour until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Pour into a parchment-lined 6-inch pan. Air fry at 325°F (160°C) for 12 to 14 minutes.
  5. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then lift out and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

Cooling the brownie fully is non-negotiable for clean slices and that dense fudgy center. If you’re in a hurry, pop it in the fridge for 15 minutes after the initial cool-down. It sets the butter and makes cutting a breeze.
