Ingredients
- ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter
- 7 oz (200g) dark chocolate (minimum 60% cocoa), coarsely chopped
- 3 large eggs, room temperature
- ½ cup plus 2 tablespoons (125g) granulated sugar
- ½ cup (110g) packed light brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon (5ml) pure vanilla extract
- ½ cup (72g) all-purpose flour, sifted
- 3 tablespoons (18g) cocoa powder, sifted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch metal baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
- Melt the chocolate and butter together over a saucepan of simmering water or in the microwave at 50% power, stirring frequently until smooth.
- Whisk eggs with both sugars, salt, and vanilla until pale and fluffy. This should take about a minute or two.
- Mix the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until thick and glossy.
- Gently fold in the sifted flour and cocoa powder until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and bake for 27-30 minutes. The brownies are done when they're puffed and shiny, and a skewer comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before lifting out the parchment and slicing into squares.
