Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 170 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams brown sugar, packed
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 95 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons baking powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper or grease it lightly with butter.
In a microwave-safe bowl or a double boiler, melt the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together until smooth, stirring frequently to ensure they don’t burn. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
Gradually pour in the melted chocolate mixture and stir until smooth and glossy.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Mix just until no streaks of flour remain; do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-30 minutes or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing into squares.
Serve and enjoy your nostalgic 1968-style fudgy brownies!
