Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (divided)
- 1.25 cups granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and melted. Let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-combined.
Slowly add the melted chocolate mixture to the bowl, whisking continuously to combine.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula, being careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the remaining 1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips to the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it into an even layer with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs (do not overbake).
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper. Cut into squares and serve.
