Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 95 grams all-purpose flour
- 35 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons baking powder
- 75 grams chopped walnuts or chocolate chunks (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to lift the brownies out easily after baking.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
Whisk the granulated sugar and brown sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until combined and glossy. Allow the mixture to cool slightly for 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Mix until just combined; do not overmix. If you're using walnuts or chocolate chunks, fold them in at this stage.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Using the parchment paper overhang, lift the cooled brownies out of the pan and transfer them to a cutting board. Slice into 16 squares and serve.
