Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams brown sugar, packed
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 95 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 100 grams semi-sweet chocolate chunks (optional)
- 50 grams chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and the chocolate chips. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring each time, until fully melted and smooth. Let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined and slightly fluffy.
Slowly pour in the melted chocolate mixture and whisk until incorporated.
In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually fold these dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a rubber spatula, being careful not to overmix. If using, gently fold in the chocolate chunks and nuts.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly to the edges.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (avoid overbaking for fudgier brownies).
Remove from the oven and allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Lift the brownies out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Slice into 12 squares and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
