Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter

  • 1 cup semisweet or dark chocolate chips

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped nuts or chocolate chips for added texture

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

  • Melt Butter and Chocolate:
    In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and chocolate chips together in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.

  • Mix Wet Ingredients:
    Whisk the granulated sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until fully combined. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

  • Add Dry Ingredients:
    Sift the cocoa powder and salt into the wet mixture, stirring until fully incorporated.

  • Optional Add-ins:
    If using, fold in chopped nuts or chocolate chips.

  • Bake:
    Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

  • Cool and Serve:
    Allow the brownies to cool in the pan before cutting into squares.
