Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Semisweet chocolate chips
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Brown sugar
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 75 grams All-purpose flour
- 30 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 50 grams Chocolate chunks (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F), and grease an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking dish. For easier removal, line the dish with parchment paper, letting the edges hang over.
In a medium heatproof bowl, add the unsalted butter and semisweet chocolate chips. Melt them together using short bursts in the microwave (20-30 seconds at a time, stirring after each interval) or over a double boiler until smooth. Let this mixture cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, brown sugar, and the slightly cooled melted chocolate mixture until well combined and glossy.
Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition to thoroughly incorporate. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding gently with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula. If desired, sprinkle chocolate chunks on top for extra fudgy pockets.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center appears slightly underbaked (this ensures the fudgy texture).
Remove from the oven and let the dessert cool completely in the dish. For clean slices, chill it in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours before cutting.
Serve as is or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
