Very Chocolatey Salted Brownies
- 170g unsalted butter
- 60g dark chocolate chips/chunks (I use 70% dark chocolate)
- 45g unsweetened cocoa powder
- 110g plain flour
- 220g granulated sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1½ tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (I use 55% dark chocolate) - optional
- Preheat oven to 175°C.
- Line a 9-inch square baking pan with alumnium foil and coat lightly with non-stick baking spray.
- Melt butter and chocolate chips over a water bath or using a microwave, stirring occasionally.
- Allow butter and chocolate mixture to cool slightly.
- Sift flour and cocoa powder over the chocolate mixture and whisk in till combined.
- Whisk in the sugar till combined, followed by the eggs, one at a time.
- Lastly, whisk in the vanilla extract and salt.
- Fold in the extra chocolate chips if desired.
- Pour batter into the baking pan and smooth out the top using a spatula.
- Bake for 30 - 35 minutes, or until the centre is just slightly soft.
- Allow to cool in the pan for an hour. Refrigerate the brownies for 1 - 1.5 hours to allow them to set completely.
- Remove brownies from pan and peel off the aluminium foil.
- Cut brownies into squares and sprinkle a little extra sea salt on top.
- Serve at room temperature.
