Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter melted (16 tablespoons or 226 grams)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (85 grams)
  • 2 cups granulated sugar (396 grams)
  • 1/4 teaspoon table salt
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder (63 grams)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour (180 grams)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8 by 8 inch baking pan with parchment paper or spray it with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the butter and chocolate chips together. Stir as the butter melts to prevent burning. Continue until the mixture is smooth. (See note.)
    1 cup unsalted butter, 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • In a large bowl, combine the butter mixture with the sugar and salt, stirring until well combined. Mix in the cocoa powder.
    2 cups granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon table salt, 3/4 cup cocoa powder
  • Mix in the eggs and vanilla. Then mix in the flour until just combined.
    3 large eggs, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the pan comes out with only a few crumbs.
  • Let cool completely before removing them from the pan and cutting into brownies. Store in an airtight container for up to two weeks.

Notes

You can also melt the butter and the chocolate together in the microwave in a large bowl. Then add the sugar to that bowl, making this a one bowl brownie recipe.
