Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 170 grams Semi-sweet chocolate
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Brown sugar
- 3 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 95 grams All-purpose flour
- 30 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 100 grams Chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and semi-sweet chocolate. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.
Whisk in the granulated sugar and brown sugar into the chocolate-butter mixture until well combined.
Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking vigorously after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Using a sifter, add the flour, cocoa powder, and salt directly into the bowl. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
If using chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter at this stage.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang. Slice into 9 squares and serve.
