Ingredients

• 113 grams Unsalted butter
• 170 grams Semi-sweet chocolate
• 200 grams Granulated sugar
• 100 grams Brown sugar
• 3 pieces Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 95 grams All-purpose flour
• 30 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 100 grams Chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.

Step 2

In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and semi-sweet chocolate. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.

Step 3

Whisk in the granulated sugar and brown sugar into the chocolate-butter mixture until well combined.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Using a sifter, add the flour, cocoa powder, and salt directly into the bowl. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

If using chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter at this stage.

Step 7

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

Step 8

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

Step 9

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang. Slice into 9 squares and serve.
