Ingredients
  

Brownie Ingredients
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Equipment

  • 9x13 inch baking pan
  • microwave-safe bowl or saucepan
  • whisk
  • mixing bowls
  • spatula
  • wire rack

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan. This ensures the brownies don't stick and bake evenly.
  2. Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl or a saucepan over low heat. Once melted, stir in the granulated sugar until well combined.
  3. Whisk in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract, mixing until the batter is smooth and glossy.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips, then pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. Avoid overbaking to keep them fudgy.
  7. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares and serving. This helps them set and prevents crumbling.

Notes

For an extra rich flavor, use dark chocolate chips. Do not overmix the batter; this can lead to tough brownies. Always let them cool completely before cutting for the best texture and clean slices.
