Brownie Ingredients

Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.

  2. 2

    Melt Butter

    In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  3. 3

    Mix Sugars and Eggs

    Stir in the granulated sugar and brown sugar into the melted butter until well combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

  4. 4

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt.

  5. 5

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  6. 6

    Add Chocolate Chips and Nuts

    Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts (if using).

  7. 7

    Bake the Brownies

    Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

  8. 8

    Cool and Serve

    Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares and serve.
