Ingredients
- 0.75 cup unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 3 count large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 cup chocolate chunks (optional for extra gooeyness)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a microwave-safe bowl or a double boiler, melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together until smooth. Stir frequently to avoid burning. Once melted, set aside to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy.
Step 4
Slowly pour the cooled chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, whisking continuously to combine.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
Step 6
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the brownie mounds tender.
Step 7
If desired, stir in the optional chocolate chunks for an extra burst of gooey chocolate when baked.
Step 8
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop mounds of batter onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each mound.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the brownie mounds have puffed up and the tops appear shiny with slight cracks.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and allow the brownie mounds to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 11
Serve warm or at room temperature with a glass of milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate treat!
