Ingredients
- 1 cup (227g) unsalted butter
- 1 ½ cups (300g) granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
- ½ cup (50g) unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
- 1 cup (170g) bittersweet or semi-sweet chocolate chunks
- 3 ounces (85g) bittersweet chocolate, melted
Instructions
- Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy removal. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Measure flour, cocoa powder, and chocolate chunks.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, gently melt butter and bittersweet chocolate together in 30-second bursts, stirring in between until glossy and smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk granulated sugar and eggs until pale and thickened.
- Pour melted butter and chocolate mixture into sugar-egg bowl. Add vanilla extract and whisk to combine until shiny and uniform.
- Sift cocoa powder and flour over wet ingredients. Gently fold in with a spatula until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
- Fold in chocolate chunks evenly.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until edges are set but center is slightly underbaked and shiny.
- Cool completely on a wire rack. Use parchment overhang to lift brownies out and slice with a warm, dry knife for clean cuts.
Notes
[‘Do not overmix the batter to keep brownies fudgy, not cakey.’, ‘Use quality chocolate bars chopped into chunks for best flavor and texture.’, ‘Check oven early at 25 minutes to avoid overbaking; center should remain shiny.’, ‘Let brownies cool completely before slicing for clean cuts.’, ‘Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate up to 4 days.’, ‘Microwave or warm in oven before serving if desired.’, ‘For gluten-free, substitute flour with 1-to-1 gluten-free baking blend.’, ‘For dairy-free, use coconut oil instead of butter and dairy-free chocolate chips.’]
