Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring the paper slightly overhangs the edges for easy removal.
In a heatproof bowl, melt the butter and dark chocolate together. You can do this over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) or in the microwave in short bursts of 20 seconds, stirring in between until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy. This can take about 3-5 minutes using an electric mixer on medium-high speed. Add the vanilla extract and mix briefly to combine.
Pour the slightly cooled chocolate-butter mixture into the egg mixture. Gently fold it in with a spatula until fully incorporated.
Sift the all-purpose flour and baking powder into the chocolate mixture. Gently fold in the dry ingredients until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to ensure the brownies remain tender.
Fold in the chopped walnuts, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cool, use the overhanging parchment paper to lift the brownies out of the pan. Dust the top with powdered sugar before cutting into squares.
Cut the brownies into squares and serve. Enjoy your rich, chocolatey brownies!
Tips:
- For an extra fudgy texture, do not overbake the brownies. The center should still be slightly soft when you take them out of the oven.
- Line your baking pan with parchment paper to make it easier to remove the brownies once they're cooked.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting them to get neat and clean edges.
- Feel free to add more nuts or mix in some chocolate chips for extra texture and flavor.
- Use high-quality dark chocolate for a richer and more intense chocolate flavor.
And there you have it – a batch of irresistible rich chocolate brownies. With their perfect balance of gooeyness and a slight crunch from the walnuts, these brownies are sure to become a favorite in your household. Enjoy them warm with a scoop of ice cream or simply on their own for a delightful treat.
