Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1.5 cups granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups brown sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 cup dark chocolate chunks

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until smooth and fully melted. Let the mixture cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

Gradually pour the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, whisking continuously until fully combined.

Step 5

In a separate medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.

Step 6

Slowly fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula, being careful not to overmix. The batter will be thick.

Step 7

Gently fold in the dark chocolate chunks for extra texture and bursts of chocolate.

Step 8

Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).

Step 10

Remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.

Step 11

Serve and enjoy these irresistibly fudgy, chocolatey brownies!
