Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a 9-inch round or square baking pan. Line the pan with parchment paper for easier removal.
Melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter together in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method). Stir occasionally until fully melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the melted chocolate-butter mixture to the sugar and eggs, whisking to combine. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula, being careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips for bursts of melted chocolate throughout the dessert.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Do not overbake.
While the dessert is cooling, prepare the chocolate ganache. Heat the whipping cream in a small saucepan until it begins to simmer (do not boil). Remove from heat and pour it over the remaining chopped dark chocolate. Let it sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy.
Once the baked dessert has cooled, pour the ganache evenly over the top, spreading it with a spatula. Allow the ganache to set at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
Optional: Dust the top with powdered sugar for an elegant finish before serving.
Slice into portions and enjoy your rich, chocolatey solution to PMS!
