Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal, and lightly grease the paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and chocolate chips. Microwave in 20-second increments, stirring after each, until both are fully melted and smooth. Let the mixture cool slightly for 2-3 minutes.
Stir the granulated sugar into the melted butter and chocolate mixture until fully combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Continue stirring until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Gently fold in the flour using a rubber spatula, mixing just until no streaks of flour remain. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Remove the pan from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Slice into 9 squares and enjoy!
