Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Batter
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the brownies.
- Prepare Pan: Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan thoroughly to prevent sticking.
- Melt Butter: In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter slowly to avoid burning.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: Remove the melted butter from heat and immediately stir in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually mix in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt, stirring until the batter is smooth and uniform in texture.
- Incorporate Chocolate Chips: Fold in the chocolate chips gently to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
- Pour Batter: Pour the prepared batter into the greased baking pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares and serving.
Notes
- Use unsweetened cocoa powder for a deep chocolate flavor without added sweetness.
- Check the brownies at 25 minutes to avoid overbaking and maintain fudginess.
- Letting the brownies cool completely helps them set and makes cutting easier.
- You can substitute chocolate chips with chopped nuts or white chocolate chips for variation.
- Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
