Cakey Pistachio Cocoa Brownies

There are way more recipes on fudgy brownies than the cakey ones. Majority of people I know just love those gooey and rich chocolaty fudgy brownies. Well for those handful “cakey” people who prefers the not fudgy version, this recipe is an option for you to try. No rich melted chocolate but cocoa powder is used in this recipe. Personally, cakey brownies can be as good as the more popular fudgy-wudgy ones.
