Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • oven
  • 9x9-inch square baking pan
  • whisk
  • spatula
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • knife
  • cutting board

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs at room temperature
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour spooned and leveled
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder sifted if lumpy
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a 9x9-inch square baking pan with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 1 cup of melted butter and 2 cups of granulated sugar until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  • Add the 4 eggs one at a time, whisking thoroughly after each addition until the batter is smooth and slightly thickened, then stir in the 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
  • In a separate medium bowl, sift together the 1 cup of flour, 3/4 cup of cocoa powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt, then gradually fold these dry ingredients into the wet batter using a spatula until just combined and no dry streaks remain.
  • Gently fold in the 1 cup of chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the thick, fudgy batter.
  • Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (but not wet batter).
  • Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack for at least 1 hour before slicing into squares for clean cuts.
