Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 170 grams Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 grams Brown sugar
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 95 grams All-purpose flour
- 20 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 60 grams Chocolate chunks (optional for filling)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together, stirring continuously until smooth. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until light and combined.
Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from cooking.
Sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt in a separate bowl, then fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, portion out mounds of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 5 cm (2 inches) apart.
Optionally, press a chocolate chunk into the center of each mound and cover with a small amount of batter to encase the chunk.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers remain slightly soft.
Remove from the oven and allow the brownie mounds to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm for a gooey center or at room temperature for a fudgy texture. Enjoy!
