Prep Time 20 minutes mins
Cook Time 30 minutes mins
- 2 sticks 8oz/225g butter
- 2 cups 12floz/340g chopped bittersweet chocolate (divided)
- 1 cup 8oz/225g granulated sugar
- ½ cup 3 oz/85g dark brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 4 large room temperature eggs (beaten)
- ½ cup 2 ½oz/71g all-purpose flour
- ½ cup 2 oz/57g unsweetened cocoa powder
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Butter and line an 8x8 inch pan with parchment paper.
Melt together the butter and 1 ½ cups (9oz/255g) of the chopped chocolate. Do this gently in the microwave or over a Ban Marie. Once melted and smooth, stir in the sugars, vanilla, and salt.
Briefly whisk the beaten eggs into the chocolate mix until just combined. Sift over the bowl your flour and cocoa powder. Stir until just combined.
Lastly, fold in the remaining ½ cup (3oz/85g) chopped chocolate before evenly spreading the mixture into the prepared baking pan.
Bake for roughly 30-35 minutes or until the brownies are just set. Allow cooling slightly before enjoying them warm with vanilla ice cream.
