Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup cups unsalted butter melted and cooled
  • 2 cups cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cups unsweetened cocoa powder Dutch-processed preferred
  • 1/2 teaspoon teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup cups chocolate chips semisweet or dark

Equipment

  • 9x13 inch baking pan
  • Parchment paper
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until well combined. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  5. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Cut into squares and serve.

Notes

Chef's Tips:
• For an even fudgier texture, use a combination of milk and dark chocolate chips
• Avoid overmixing the batter to prevent tough brownies
• Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgence
Food Safety:
• Use pasteurized eggs to minimize the risk of salmonella
• Store leftovers in an airtight container to prevent spoilage
