Your Brownies Could Be So Much Better. Try This Chef's Recipe.
'Bad brownies, it's sort of like pizza to me: Even bad pizza is still pizza,' said Nicole Rucker, the owner of Fat + Flour bakery in Los Angeles. 'At the end of the day, it's going to be OK.' For the record, Rucker's brownies are much better than OK, and you should give them a try even if you already have a go-to recipe. They're probably better than yours, if not the best you'll ever bake. It's the bread flour that does it. Rucker's new cookbook, 'Fat + Flour,' offers six recipes for brownies; four call for that ingredient. It's Rucker's nod to pastry chef Jacques Torres's legendary chocolate-chip cookie, which features bread flour, and to television host Alton Brown, who brought that cookie to her attention with his adaptation of it. She also wanted to replicate the results she gets at Fat + Flour, where they produce such large brownie batches, they end up 'curing' them: 'We keep them cold for days and days and days, and they obtain this settled, chewy texture that, when it comes fully to room temperature, is very fudgy but has that chewy edge.'

29 Neutral Pieces To Pick Up Now
A pair of extra-wide-leg darted palazzo pants that'll allow for ample airflow. It's basically like wearing a dress, but you don't have to worry about accidentally flashing anyone if a gust of wind catches you by surprise. A plain Madewell tee you can wear again and again and again because there's really no wrong way to pair it. Like seriously, I'd like to see an outfit it doesn't make sense with?? Or a geometric tee that will work just like any regular ol' tee, but with ✨a little extra spice ✨in the form of a cutout. A silky satin midi skirt with a silhouette that says "chic" and an elastic waistband that says "I'll give your most comfortable sweats a run for their money." A classic London Fog trench you can throw on over anything and immediately look like an incognito celeb — especially if you throw sunglasses into the mix. A trusty pair of Reebok Club C Doubles — the only shoes I'd save from a burning building if given the opportunity — with comfy platform soles and a high-abrasion outsole that guarantees durability. An on-trend vest top with a slightly cropped silhouette that'll pair per-fectly with all of your high-waisted bottoms and chunky gold accessories. A long-sleeve bodysuit in a deliciously soft fabric — known as Smoke Cloud — that reviewers compare to Skims. They say it washes well, too, so you can count on it being high quality despite the deceivingly low price! Or a double-lined square-neck option that's an absolute wardrobe win as reviewers describe it with words and phrases like "butter soft," "versatile," "super comfortable," and — simple and straight to the point — "OBSESSED." Some square-toe ballet flats if you're finally succumbing to balletcore after watching 10,000 GRWM videos that inevitably feature the style. A seriously *stunning* slip dress you can gussy up or tone down. Wear it with heels and you've got yourself an evening dress, or pair it with a leather jacket and ankle boots for an impossibly cool look. An oversized Levi's jean jacket that I won't even waste your time explaining. You and I both KNOW there's nothing more versatile, and denim is the ultimate neutral. A structured blazer with a classic collar and lapel you can layer over a button-up for an interview or over a simple tee for an office-appropriate outfit that takes zero brain power because having to make outfit decisions at 7 a.m. is rough. A pair of 100% European linen pants you *will* reach for every. single. day. — and I say this from experience. (If you're my friend and you've seen me wear these two days in a row... no, you didn't.) A mock neck tank sweater — with a smart cap sleeve — that makes a statement on all on its own, so you don't have to waste any time hemming and hawing over accessories. Some Levi's cinch baggy jeans with an ingenious set of side buttons so you can avoid the dreaded waist gap and enjoy a tailored-to-you fit without shelling out extra cash to go to an actual tailor. An off-the-shoulder top that's such a hit with reviewers, many have bought it in multiple colors. Slingback heels for anyone leaning into their timeless French fashion era. What can I say? The French know what they're doing, and these Chanel-inspired heels are a no-brainer. A denim midi skirt with a slitted hem that helps show off your footwear — especially if you're practicing what TikTok calls the "wrong shoe theory." A stretchy bodycon pencil dress that'll basically feel like a second skin. Some reviewers say they were considering splurging on the Skims version until they tried this and loved it just as much! A leather biker jacket with classic lapels and simple gunmetal finishings that make it a cinch to style. Like, seriously — throw it on over basically anything. A machine-washable (!!!) satin mini skirt prepared to pull the weight of your entire outfit. And you will be wearing it 24/7 — so not having to take it to the dry cleaners is a godsend. A smart button-down maxi if your usual go-to is an oversized men's shirt and lived-in jeans. But look, when it's freakin' humid out, reaching for denim just isn't an option. An oversized menswear-inspired button-up with a high-low shirttail hem and 100-percent cotton construction that'll stand up to years of wear. 👂What's that? Oh, Chessy called and she approves. An A-line, linen-blend midi dress that looks like it's from Reformation but it's actually from Old Navy (!!!) so you won't have to budget for months in order to afford it. A square-neck A-line dress with a slight drop waist (v on-trend) and a fitted bodice that's sure to become a summer go-to. Heck, you can even wear it well into fall and maybe even winter with some knee-high boots. A dainty ruffled set made from lightweight, breathable cotton so your en-vogue outfit won't turn your pits into a sweat fest. Some top-rated Everlane utility pants with accent stitching, patch pockets, and a cool cropped silhouette that reads like you put serious effort into your look even if all you did was slip on a white tee, slide on some platform Vans, and call it a day. And a pair of patent leather or suede knee-high boots that come in NINE DIFFERENT CALF WIDTHS if you've been struggling to find a pair that fit correctly for oh... idk... your whole life!!!
