Ingredients
Scale
- 200 grams (1 cup) caster sugar or granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 115 grams (1/2 cup or 1 stick) unsalted butter
- 200 grams (1 and 1/3 cup) dark chocolate (45-70% cocoa), broken into pieces
- 70 grams (1/2 cup) plain flour or all purpose flour
- 20 grams (1/4 cup) cocoa powder, sifted
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 75 grams (1/2 cup) chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) standard or 160°C (320°F) fan-forced. Grease and line an 8-inch square or round baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar and eggs. Whisk together until creamy and well combined, about 30 seconds.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and dark chocolate. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until melted and smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and whisk until smooth and well incorporated.
- Add the flour, cocoa powder, and salt; gently stir using a spatula until a thick, smooth brownie batter forms. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, smoothing it into an even layer. Bake for approximately 30-35 minutes, until the top is shiny, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean.
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Store at room temperature, in the fridge, or freeze for later.
Notes
Ensure chocolate is fully melted for a smooth batter.
Cool brownies completely for easier cutting into squares.
These brownies freeze well and maintain their flavor.
