Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 8 oz. bittersweet chocolate
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 5 large eggs
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2/3 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13×9 inch baking pan, then set it aside.
- In a 3-quart saucepan, melt the butter and bittersweet chocolate together over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Once the chocolate mixture has cooled, whisk in the sugar and vanilla extract. Then, add the eggs one at a time, whisking until combined and smooth after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, and salt. Gradually combine this dry mixture with the chocolate mixture, whisking thoroughly until blended.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25 to 35 minutes. Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting into squares.
Notes
For extra fudginess, avoid overbaking; check for doneness at the lower end of the baking time.
Feel free to add walnuts or chocolate chips for added texture and flavor.
