Directions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and line a 8-inch (20 cm) square pan with parchment paper.
- 2
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the sugar until pale and doubled in volume.
- 3
Melt the dark chocolate with the butter in a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each. Allow to cool slightly.
- 4
Fold the melted chocolate into the egg-sugar mixture using a spatula until combined.
- 5
Sift the cocoa powder and baking powder over the batter, add the pinch of salt, and mix until smooth.
- 6
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. The center should remain slightly wobbly when you remove it.
- 7
Let cool completely in the pan before unmolding and cutting into generous squares.
💡 Chef's Tip
The secret to the perfect fudgy brownie: pull it from the oven the moment the edges are set but the center still jiggles — it will firm up as it cools. For extra indulgence, fold in ½ cup of chopped walnuts or white chocolate chips before baking.
