Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Ghirardelli Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a double boiler or heatproof bowl placed over simmering water, melt the Ghirardelli Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips and butter. Stir occasionally until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Stir in the granulated sugar and vanilla extract into the melted chocolate mixture until well combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until the mixture is glossy and smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet chocolate mixture using a rubber spatula until no streaks of flour remain. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Do not overbake for fudgy brownies.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares. Serve and enjoy!
