Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cupmelted salted butter
- 1 cupsemi-sweet chocolate chips (or dark chocolate chips)
- 1 cupgranulated sugar
- 1/2 cuplight brown sugar
- 1/2 cupDutch-process cocoa powder
- 3large eggs, room temperature
- 1 tspvanilla extract
- 3/4 cupall-purpose flour
- 1/2 tspfine sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat yourovento 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan withparchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
- Melt the butter and chocolate: In amicrowave-safe bowl, melt the salted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together in 30-second increments, stirring after each until completely melted and smooth. Allow this mixture to cool slightly.
- Mix the sugars and cocoa: In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, and Dutch-process cocoa powder. Pour in the melted butter and chocolate mixture and stir until well combined.
- Add the eggs and vanilla: Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract. The batter should be thick and glossy.
- Incorporate the dry ingredients: Gently fold in the all-purpose flour and fine sea salt until just combined. Be careful not to overmix – we want to keep that fudgy texture!
- Pour and bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt flakes on top for that extra touch of flavor. Bake in the preheatedovenfor 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and enjoy: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on awire rackbefore cutting into squares. This step is crucial for the ultimate fudgy texture!
Notes
Room temperature eggs: Ensure your eggs are at room temperature to help them mix well with the other ingredients.Don’t overbake: Slightly underbaking is better than overbaking to maintain that fudgy texture.Chill before cutting: For cleaner cuts, refrigerate the brownies for an hour before slicing.
