Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease or line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together in a heatproof bowl over simmering water (double boiler) or in 20-second intervals in the microwave, stirring until smooth. Let it cool slightly.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until combined.
Slowly drizzle in the slightly cooled chocolate mixture while whisking to combine. Be careful not to scramble the eggs.
Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour in the champagne and fold it into the batter until fully incorporated.
Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan and spread it into an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares or rectangles.
Optional: Dust the top of the brownies with powdered sugar before serving.
