What is black cocoa?
Black cocoa is ultra-dutch processed cocoa powder, which means that it has been heavily alkalinized to neutralize its natural acidity. This gives the cocoa a deep, almost black, color and rich flavor with a slightly bitter undertone. The flavor is very similar to Oreo cookies.

Ingredients
2 2 eggs
1/2 cup 1/2 vegetable oil
1 teaspoon 1 vanilla
1 tablespoon 1 water
1 1/4 cups 1 1/4 sugar
3/4 cup 3/4 flour
3/4 cup 3/4 black cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon 1/2 salt
1 cup 1 semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Prepare a 9×9 baking pan by lining it with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together, the eggs, vegetable oil, vanilla, and water. Then, whisk in the sugar.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, black cocoa powder, and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined and smooth. Then, fold in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the mixture evenly into the baking pan and bake for about 25-30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Notes
- For clean edges, wait until the brownies have cooled completely before cutting. It’s also understandable if you can’t wait and want to eat them straight out of the oven!
Delicious!
