Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and chocolate chips together in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth. Let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar and eggs until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, stirring constantly to combine.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
Gently mix in the sour cream until the batter is smooth and glossy.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Serve and enjoy!
