Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 150 grams brown sugar
- 75 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 95 grams all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 100 grams dark chocolate chips or chunks
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a 20x20 cm (8x8 inch) square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and whisk in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cocoa powder until smooth and well combined.
Stir in the vanilla extract and then beat in the eggs, one at a time, until the mixture is glossy and thick.
Add the flour and salt to the mixture, and gently fold it in using a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips or chunks to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with the spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack, about 1 hour. This helps them set and ensures an extra chewy texture.
Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Slice into 12 squares and serve. Enjoy!
