Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 4 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large saucepan over low heat, melt the butter completely. Remove from heat and whisk in the granulated sugar and cocoa powder until smooth.
Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then beat in the eggs one at a time until fully combined. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
Gently stir in the chocolate chips to incorporate evenly into the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
Remove the pan from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing into squares.
Optionally, dust the fudge squares with powdered sugar for added sweetness and presentation. Serve and enjoy!
