Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- 9 X 13 pan
- Parchment paper
Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter
- ⅔ cups unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 large eggs (use 4 if you have medium or small eggs)
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1 cup flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, not optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9 X 13 pan with parchment paper.
- Melt butter in a microwave safe bowl and allow to cool slightly. Stir cocoa powder into melted butter and mix well.
- In a large bowl whisk eggs, sugar and vanilla together. Add in chocolate and butter mixture and mix until combined. Stir in flour, baking powder, and salt and mix just until combined. Do not over mix. Stir in 1 cup chocolate chips.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and sprinkle remaining chocolate chips on top of brownies.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 24-26 minutes. Do not overbake – even if brownies do not look done they will continue cooking and firm up in the pan.
- Cut into squares when cool.
