Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.75 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the semi-sweet chocolate chips and stir until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, brown sugar, and the melted chocolate mixture until fully combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, being careful not to overmix.
If using, gently fold in the chopped walnuts.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing into 12 squares.
Serve and enjoy the magic!
