Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spatula
  • 9x13-inch baking pan
  • Parchment paper

Ingredients

  • 1 cup g unsalted butter
  • 2 cups g granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup g all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup g unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup g chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)
  • 1 cup g heavy cream
  • 8 oz g semi-sweet chocolate, chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, then stir in the sugar until sandy and golden.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the batter thickens and becomes glossy.
  • Stir in the vanilla extract.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
  • Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips and pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  • While the brownie cools, heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan until simmering (do not boil).
  • Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl and let it sit for 2-3 minutes.
  • Stir gently until the mixture becomes smooth and shiny.
  • Once the brownie has cooled completely, pour the ganache over it, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
  • Optional: refrigerate for 30 minutes for a firmer texture before cutting into squares.

Notes

This cake can be made ahead of time, and it gets even better the next day! Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator if it’s warm. Optional garnishes include fresh berries, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar. For an extra indulgence, sprinkle flaky sea salt on top before the ganache sets. If you have leftovers, wrap slices tightly and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge for best results.
