Chocolate Chip Brownie Recipe
The allure of this gloriously decadent chocolate chip brownie recipe will make even the sugar averse salivate in anticipation. Little mounds of semi sweet chocolate chips dot about unsweetened cocoa for a melt in your mouth treat.
Ingredients
- ½ cup flour all purpose
- ¾ cup sugar granulated or cane
- ¼ cup cocoa powder unsweetened
- ½ cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 6 tablespoons butter unsalted and softened
- 2 eggs
Instructions
- Add the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt to a medium size mixing bowl. Stir to combine.
- To the same mixing bowl, add the eggs, softened butter and vanilla extract. Mix well to combine.
- Slowly stir the chocolate chips into the batter. Top with as many as you like.
- Pour the batter mixture into an 8x8 or 9x9 cake baking pan. I line my pan with parchment paper.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Remove from the oven and use a toothpick to check if the brownies are done or if they need a few more minutes. Avoid over-baking.
- Let the brownies sit for 5-10 minutes before serving. If you want, top with a handful of chocolate chips.
Notes
Variations and Substitutions:
- Use chocolate nibs or chunks if you don’t have chocolate morsels.
- Exclude the baking powder and baking soda if you want chewy, dense brownies.
- Add blueberries for an infusion of fruity flavor.
- Squeeze some lemon juice for a tart flavor profile.
- Use orange or lemon zest to add a hint of freshness.
