Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (227g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 ½ cups (300g) granulated sugar
  • ½ cup (100g) brown sugar
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup (75g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp baking powder
  • ½ cup (90g) chocolate chips or chopped chocolate (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8 inch baking pan with butter or line it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
  2. Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl or on the stovetop over low heat. Let it cool slightly.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter until smooth and glossy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
  6. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a rubber spatula, being careful not to overmix.
  7. Fold in the chocolate chips or chopped chocolate if using.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Tap the pan lightly on the counter to release air bubbles.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Check at 25 minutes by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out with a few moist crumbs.
  10. Cool the brownies completely in the pan on a wire rack for at least an hour before slicing.

Notes

Avoid overmixing the batter to keep brownies chewy, not cakey. Use a mix of granulated and brown sugar for the perfect crust and chewiness. Check doneness with a toothpick starting at 25 minutes. Cooling completely before slicing ensures clean cuts.
