Ingredients

• 1 cup (225g) unsalted butter
• 8 oz (225g) dark chocolate, chopped
• 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
• 1 cup (200g) packed brown sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup (45g) unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup (175g) chocolate chips or nuts (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. Melt Chocolate and Butter: In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and chopped dark chocolate together, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
3. Mix Sugars and Eggs: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs until well combined. Stir in the melted chocolate mixture and vanilla extract.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips or nuts if desired.
5. Bake: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
6. Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool in the pan before cutting into squares. Enjoy them on their own or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat!
