Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once completely melted, remove from heat and whisk in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cocoa powder until smooth.
Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then whisk in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
Stir in the vanilla extract and salt until combined.
Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the all-purpose flour until no streaks remain. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips to add an extra layer of texture and gooeyness to the brownies.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, using the spatula to smooth out the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (do not overbake!).
Remove the brownies from the oven and allow them 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. Cut into 12 squares or your desired serving size and enjoy!
