Numnum
For years, I couldn’t seem to find a recipe for brownies that met my standards. This is the one! It has perfect centers, the best edges, crackly tops and the most fudge texture!

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter
  • semi-sweet chocolate bar, coarsely chopped (or butter)
  • 2 cups granulated sugar*
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup unsweetened natural or dutch-process cocoa powder*
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F or 180°C. Butter and dust an 8in by 8in pan (glass recommended) with cocoa powder.
  • In a bowl add your butter and oil. Melt in 30 second intervals. Stir in your sugar. It should be grainy. Don't worry about the texture or color. Add in your eggs. Beat until fully combined. Add vanilla. Stir.
    Next, add in your flour, cocoa, salt, and chocolate chips. Stir to evenly combine.
  • Try to spread the batter evenly in your pan (this may be difficult due to the thickness of the batter and the flour in your pan). Sprinkle with some chocolate chips and Bake for 30 minutes depending on your pan. You should check it a few minutes before or leave it in for an extra 5-10 minutes if it should need
  • Take it out of the oven while it is still moist and a tooth pix somes out with some extremely moist crumbs. You need to let it cool for at least 15 minutes before cutting it which helps it hold shape. (or 7 minutes in the fridge) You can also let it cool for a whole hour for the best slices. Wipe your knife after each cut for cleaner cuts.
  • Enjoy.

Notes

Pans: You can use and pans that are oven safe (even bowls or cake pans) but I chose to use glass, baking time make vary depending on the pan.
