Brownie Ingredients
Method
Brownie Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Melt the Butter
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Mix Sugars and Eggs
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix well. Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Add Chocolate Chips
If desired, fold in the chocolate chips into the batter.
Bake
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Cool and Serve
Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares and enjoy!
