Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking pan, ensuring it's well-coated for easy removal after baking.
- Melt the butter until just melted but not bubbling, then combine it with both sugars until smooth and glossy.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition to create a light and airy mixture, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Sift together flour, cocoa powder, and salt in another bowl before gradually mixing this into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Gently fold in chocolate chips and nuts if using until evenly distributed without overworking the batter.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly, and bake for about 25–30 minutes until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
