Preparation

  3. In a large bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar, then whisk until smooth.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Baking

  2. Fold in the chocolate chips, then pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.

Notes

For extra fudgy brownies, slightly underbake them. Do not overmix the batter to avoid dry brownies. Use good quality cocoa powder and chocolate for the best flavor. Letting the brownies cool completely is crucial for clean slices. A pinch of espresso powder can enhance the chocolate flavor.
