Ingredients
- 120 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams semi-sweet chocolate
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams light brown sugar
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 100 grams dark chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for topping)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
Step 2
Melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate together in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler method). Stir until smooth, then set aside to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and light brown sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Step 4
Stir in the vanilla extract and the melted chocolate mixture until fully incorporated.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Step 6
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Step 7
Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips for an extra burst of chocolate in each bite.
Step 8
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (do not overbake).
Step 10
Remove the pan from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Step 11
Once cooled, lift the brownies out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Slice into 12 equal squares.
Step 12
Optional: Dust the top of the brownies with a light layer of powdered sugar before serving.
