Ingredients:
Brownies:
- 80 g butter
- 80 g dark chocolate
- 2 eggs (room temperature)
- 120 g sugar
- 85 g flour
- 10 g cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp baking powder (optional, for less fudgy brownies)
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Chocolate Sauce:
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup oil
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla sugar
Instructions:
- Prepare the Brownies:
- Preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F). Grease and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- Melt the butter and dark chocolate together in a heatproof bowl over simmering water (double boiler method) or in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Let it cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add the melted chocolate mixture to the egg mixture, stirring continuously.
- Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder (if using). Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not completely clean for fudgy brownies).
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting.
- Prepare the Chocolate Sauce:
- In a bowl, combine the cocoa powder, milk, oil, sugar, and vanilla sugar.
- Mix everything with a hand mixer or blender until smooth and well combined.
- Serve:
