Baking Ingredients
  • 95 g plain (all-purpose) flour
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
Chocolate Mixture
  • 225 g dark chocolate (chopped) Use high-quality chocolate for best results.
  • 56 g butter (salted or unsalted)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 160ºC (320ºF) for fan ovens or 170ºC (338ºF) for conventional ovens. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the chopped dark chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl over simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whip together the eggs, caster sugar, and Demerara sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Sift the plain flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt into another bowl, then fold in the chocolate chips.
Baking
  1. Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, followed by the dry mixture, taking care not to overmix.
  2. Scoop tablespoons of the batter onto the prepared baking tray, spacing them apart.
  3. Bake for 12-14 minutes until the tops are slightly crackly. Do not overbake.
  4. Optional: Sprinkle sea salt on top when removing from the oven for a contrast in flavor.
Cooling and Serving
  1. Allow the brownies to cool on the tray for 10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  2. Serve as is, or with toppings such as ice cream, chocolate sauce, or nuts.

Notes

Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days or refrigerate for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze tightly wrapped for up to three months.
