Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Mixture
- 1 cup unsalted butter, cut into chunks
- 8 ounces dark chocolate chips (or dark chocolate cut in small pieces) (about 1 1/3 cups)
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
Other Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and line a 9x13 inch pan with parchment paper for easy removal of the brownies after baking.
- Melt Butter and Chocolate: Place the butter in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted. Add the dark chocolate and stir, then let it sit for a few minutes. Stir again until mostly melted, leaving some lumps is fine.
- Add Sugars: Stir in the granulated sugar and brown sugar briskly until thoroughly combined with the chocolate mixture.
- Add Eggs: Whisk in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is completely incorporated before adding the next.
- Flavor and Salt: Stir in the vanilla extract and salt until evenly mixed.
- Fold in Flour: Gently fold in the all-purpose flour until just combined without overmixing.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 35 minutes or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out moist but without batter clinging to it.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely before lifting out of the pan and slicing into squares for serving.
Notes
- Use parchment paper to easily lift the brownies out for cleaner slicing.
- Dark chocolate chips can be substituted with chopped dark chocolate bars for richer flavor.
- Do not overbake to maintain a fudgy texture; the toothpick should come out with moist crumbs but no wet batter.
- For an extra touch, sprinkle chopped nuts or sea salt on top before baking.
- Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
