Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons baking powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each session, until fully melted and smooth.
Stir in the granulated sugar and light brown sugar until well combined. Let the mixture cool slightly to avoid scrambling the eggs.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs (be careful not to overbake).
Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting them into 9 squares. Serve and enjoy!
