Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 170 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams brown sugar, packed
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 95 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 60 grams optional mix-ins like chopped nuts or chocolate chunks
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease or line a 20cm x 20cm (8x8-inch) baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a microwave-safe bowl or a double boiler, melt the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together. Stir until smooth, then let it cool slightly.
Whisk the granulated sugar and brown sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until fully incorporated.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, being careful not to overmix. If desired, fold in any optional mix-ins like chopped nuts or chocolate chunks at this point.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in 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 slicing into 16 squares. Serve and enjoy!
