Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 8 oz dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher)
• 1.5 cups granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
• 4 items large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of the brownies.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and dark chocolate together, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs. Whisk the mixture vigorously for about 2-3 minutes, or until it turns pale and slightly frothy.

Step 4

Stir in the vanilla extract and the cooled chocolate-butter mixture until fully incorporated.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually fold this dry mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts (if using) to add extra richness and texture.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Smooth the top for an even bake.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter). Avoid overbaking the brownies to ensure a gooey center.

Step 9

Remove the pan from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting them into squares.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
