Ingredients
- 3/4 cup confectioners sugar
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup white granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted or browned*
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips or walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325 °F and grease an 8x8 glass baking dish or line with parchment paper.
- In a medium size bowl, whisk together the confectioners sugar, cocoa powder, flour and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, vigorously whisk together the white sugar and eggs by hand for 1-2 minutes or until the mixture is frothy and pale yellow in color. While whisking the egg/sugar mixture, slowly stream in the warm melted or browned butter and vanilla extract.
- Add the dry ingredients to the egg/sugar mixture and gently fold together the ingredients until just combined before stirring in the chocolate chips. The batter will be thick. Spread the batter into your prepared pan and top with extra chocolate chips and a little flaky sea salt if desired. Bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean. Allow to cool before slicing into squares and serving.
Notes
*I highly recommend browning your butter for this recipe for the richest flavor. Detailed instructions on how to do this can be found here.
