Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil with an overhang.
- Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces.
- Melt the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl in the microwave, stirring in intervals until smooth.
Baking
- Whisk the melted chocolate and butter together until combined.
- Stir in sugar, vanilla extract, eggs, and the additional egg yolk until smooth.
- Sift flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the mixture and fold until well combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the top is set and a toothpick shows a few moist crumbs.
Cooling and Serving
- Let the brownies cool in the pan for at least 2 hours.
- Using the overhang, lift the brownies out and slice them.
Notes
For gooier brownies, adjust baking time slightly. For added flavor, consider topping with flaky sea salt or drizzling with hot fudge.
