What Makes This Dish So Tasty
Kitchen Tips
- Be careful not to overbake; the treats should be fudgy in the center.
- Allow them to cool completely before cutting to keep clean edges.
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a square baking tin with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a big bowl, whisk together the eggs, brown sugar, white sugar, and vanilla until the mixture is light and fluffy—about 3 to 4 minutes.
Step 3
In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Step 4
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, folding gently until just combined.
Step 5
Melt the chocolate and butter together in the microwave, heating in 30-second bursts and stirring in between until smooth.
Step 6
Fold the melted chocolate mixture into the batter until everything is well combined.
Step 7
Pour the batter into your prepared tin, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Step 8
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted a couple of inches from the edge comes out clean but the center still feels a little soft. Let it cool completely in the tin before slicing into squares.
