Ingredients

  • 1 cup Unsalted butter
  • 2 cups Granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cups Brown sugar (packed)
  • 0.75 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 cup Semisweet chocolate chips
  • 4 pieces Large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
  • 0.5 teaspoons Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

Melt the unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Once melted, whisk in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cocoa powder until fully combined. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and vanilla extract together. Gradually add the slightly cooled butter mixture while whisking continuously to avoid cooking the eggs.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Sift the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, gently folding it with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

Step 6

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

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Avoid overbaking for the best fudgy texture.

Step 8

Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into 16 squares. Serve and enjoy!
