Indulge in the decadent richness of these fudgy sea salt brownies, where the perfect balance of sweet and salty creates a sensational treat for any occasion.
Ingredients: 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips. 1/2 cup unsalted butter. 1 cup granulated sugar. 2 large eggs. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 3/4 cup all-purpose flour. 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder. 1/2 teaspoon sea salt flakes, plus extra for topping.
Instructions: Warm the oven up to 175F 350C. Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper, making sure to leave some extra on the sides to make it easy to take off. To melt the chocolate chips and butter together in a bowl that can go in the microwave, add them one at a time and stir them around every 30 seconds. Add the sugar and mix it in well. One at a time, add the eggs and mix well after each one. Add the vanilla extract and mix well. Mix the flour, cocoa powder, and sea salt together in a different bowl. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix them together until they are just combined. Do not mix too much. As soon as the pan is ready, pour the batter into it and use a spatula to smooth the top. Add more sea salt flakes to the batter and spread them out evenly. After the oven is hot, bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the middle is just a little firm. Let the brownies cool all the way down on a wire rack in the pan. Once the brownies are cool, use the extra parchment paper to lift them out of the pan. Serve it cut up into squares.
