Directions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), and generously grease a 9×13 inch baking dish. This will ensure a fantastic release of the brownies once baked.
-
In a large bowl, melt the butter. Once melted, mix in the granulated sugar until fully combined. This mixture is essential for the tremendous sweetness that defines the brownies.
-
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. It’s crucial for the eggs to blend into the mixture seamlessly. Now stir in the vanilla extract, fresh lemon zest, and lemon juice, as these ingredients will enhance the overall flavor beautifully.
-
In another bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until it’s just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the texture light and tender.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared dish and bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes. You’ll know they are done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, indicating tremendous fluffy goodness throughout.
-
While the brownies are cooling, prepare the glaze. Whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth. This glaze will provide a lovely finishing touch and an extra punch of lemony flavor.
-
Once the brownies have cooled completely, drizzle the glaze generously over the top. Allow it to set for a few minutes before cutting into squares. Serve and enjoy these delicious lemon brownies!
