Instructions

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) standard or 160°C (320°F) fan-forced. Grease and line an 8-inch square or round baking pan with baking paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar and eggs. Whisk for about 30 seconds until creamy and well combined.
In a microwave-safe bowl, add the butter and dark chocolate. Heat in the microwave, stirring every 20 seconds until melted and smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and whisk until fully combined.
Add the flour, cocoa powder, and salt to the mix. Gently stir with a spatula until a thick batter forms. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and smooth it into an even layer. Bake for about 30-35 minutes or until the top is shiny and a toothpick comes out almost clean.
Allow the brownie to cool completely in the pan before cutting it into squares. Store in room temperature or refrigerate; they freeze well too.

Notes

For extra fudginess, do not overbake the brownies.
You can substitute dark chocolate with semi-sweet chocolate if preferred.
These brownies are perfect for sharing or enjoying solo as a treat.
