Preheat your oven to 175Β°C (350Β°F) and line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until smooth and fully combined.
Transfer the chocolate mixture to a large mixing bowl. Add the granulated sugar and light brown sugar, whisking until fully incorporated and slightly cooled.
Add the eggs one at a time to the chocolate mixture, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the wet ingredients. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the batter using a spatula, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly with a spatula. Tap the pan lightly on the counter to remove any air bubbles.
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter). Be careful not to overbake.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan and onto a cutting board.
Cut into 9 squares for large portions or 16 smaller squares if preferred. Serve and enjoy!
