My favorite brownies (or at least one of my favorites!)

Chewy fudgy brownies.... yum!!!

Ingredients
  

  • 112 grams or 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 200 grams chocolate dark or semisweet ( chopped)
  • 200 grams or 1 cup sugar
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 90 grams or 3/4 cup all purpose flour / maida /
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 180 degrees C and line an 8 or 9 inch square pan with parchment or foil. Make sure at least 2 opposite edges have extra overlapping to lift them out later.
  • Melt the chocolate and butter together in the microwave . You could also melt it in a saucepan , stirring continuously so it doesn't burn
  • Whisk in the sugar .
  • Whisk in the eggs , ONE BY ONE. Beat well after each egg.
  • Whisk in the vanilla.
  • Add in the flour and salt . Mix until no flour can be seen. The batter will be thick
  • Spread it as smoothly as possible. Bake at 180 C for 35-40 minutes if you using an 8 inch pan, 30-35 minutes if using a 9 inch pan. The brownie will come away from the edges and a toothpick inserted in the centre will have only a few moist crumbs
  • Cool completely in the pan on a rack. Lift out the parchment /foil and cut!

Notes

Also:
  1. An 8 inch pan will give you 16 thick (1.5 inches) brownies, a 9 inch pan will give u 16 thinner (around 1 inch ) brownies.
  2. Like with all brownies , make sure you cool completely before slicing or you won't get very clean cuts
  3. These can be stored for unto 5 days in an airtight tin.
