Ingredients:
- 210g of dark chocolate
- 125g of butter
- 2 whole eggs plus 1 egg yolk
- 1/2 cup of granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup of brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
- 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup of cocoa powder
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 175°C (347°F). Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
- Place the dark chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute, then stir until completely smooth. If needed, microwave in additional 15-second intervals until fully melted.
- In a separate large bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg yolk, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla essence until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened.
- Slowly pour the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the egg mixture, whisking continuously until well incorporated.
- Sift together the all-purpose flour and cocoa powder, then gently fold them into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Mix until just combined; avoid overmixing to keep the brownies fudgy.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly soft.
- Allow the brownies to cool in the pan on a wire rack before slicing into squares.
