Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 225 grams Unsalted butter
- 250 grams Semisweet chocolate chips
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 150 grams Brown sugar
- 4 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 30 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Baking powder
- 100 grams Chopped walnuts (optional)
- 100 grams Dark chocolate chunks (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, add the chocolate chips and stir until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add the melted butter-chocolate mixture and whisk until smooth.
Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
If desired, fold in the chopped walnuts and dark chocolate chunks for extra texture and flavor.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (avoid overbaking for the best fudgy texture).
Remove the pan from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, use the parchment overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Cut into 12 pieces and serve.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
