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 baking or parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar and eggs. Whisk together for about 30 seconds until creamy and well combined.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, place the butter and dark chocolate. Microwave, stirring every 20 seconds, until melted and smooth.
- Add the melted chocolate and butter mixture to the egg mixture. Whisk until the mixture is smooth.
- Mix in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Stir gently with a spatula until a thick, smooth batter is formed. Fold in the chocolate chips gently.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, smoothing it into an even layer. Bake for 30-35 minutes until shiny on top and no longer wobbly, with a toothpick coming out almost clean.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan, then cut into squares for serving. Store at room temperature, in the fridge, or freeze for later.
Notes
Ensure the chocolate is fully melted for a smoother batter.
Allow cooling completely before cutting for clean square edges.
These brownies can be frozen for extended storage.
