Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and prepare a 9x9-inch (23x23 cm) square baking pan by lining it with parchment paper and greasing the sides.
In a heatproof medium bowl, melt the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together using a double boiler or in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly.
Whisk the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract into the melted chocolate mixture until fully combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition until the mixture becomes glossy and smooth.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a rubber spatula, being careful not to overmix. If using chopped walnuts, fold them in at this stage.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Do not overbake, as the brownies should remain fudgy.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper. Slice into 12 squares and serve.
