Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 125g (4.5oz) butter
- 125g (4.5oz) dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids)
- 150g (5.2oz) sugar
- 2 eggs
- 100g (3.5oz) flour
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line an 18cm (7in) round pan with parchment paper.
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, remove from the heat.
- Break the dark chocolate into small chunks and add to the melted butter. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Add the sugar to the chocolate mixture and stir until well combined.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Gently fold in the flour until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly underdone for a fudgy texture.
- Allow to cool in the pan before slicing and serving.
Notes
For a different texture, consider adding walnuts or pecans to the batter. These brownies can be baked in a loaf pan around 24x12cm (9×5 in) if you prefer a more traditional shape. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
