Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×9-inch pan with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk the melted butter and sugar together until combined.
  3. Whisk in the eggs one at a time, then the vanilla extract.
  4. Sift in the cocoa powder, flour, and salt, and fold until just combined — don’t overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  7. Bake for 28-32 minutes, until the top is set and a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
  8. Cool completely in the pan before slicing for the cleanest cuts.
