Ingredients

• 0.75 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Semisweet chocolate chips
• 1.25 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 3 unit Large eggs
• 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.33 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Chocolate chunks or additional chocolate chips (optional)
• 0.5 cup Nuts (optional, chopped walnuts or pecans)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a slight overhang on the sides for easy removal.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, remove the saucepan from the heat.

Step 3

Stir in the semisweet chocolate chips until completely melted and smooth. Allow the mixture to cool slightly for 3-5 minutes so it doesn’t cook the eggs.

Step 4

Whisk in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until the mixture is well combined and glossy.

Step 5

Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 6

Sift the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt together into the saucepan. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula, being careful not to overmix.

Step 7

If desired, fold in the chocolate chunks and/or nuts for extra texture and richness.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly with your spatula.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are firm, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).

Step 10

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before using the parchment paper overhang to lift them out. Slice into 12 squares or your desired size and enjoy!
