Instructions
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 160°C (320°F) with a fan or 170°C (338°F) conventional. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Melt Chocolate and Butter: In a heatproof bowl, combine chopped dark chocolate and butter. Place over a simmering pan of water (ensure bowl doesn't touch water), stirring occasionally until smooth. Stir in vanilla extract and set aside.
- Whip Eggs and Sugars: In a medium bowl, whisk caster sugar, demerara sugar, and eggs on high speed until light, thick, and fluffy.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and chocolate chips in a separate bowl.
- Integrate Chocolate Mixture: Gradually fold in the melted chocolate mixture into the whipped egg-sugar mix. Stir gently to maintain airiness.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Carefully fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture with a spatula until just combined.
- Bake the Brookies: Scoop tablespoons of batter onto the prepared tray, leaving space for spreading. Bake for 12–14 minutes until set and crackly on top.
- Cool and Enjoy: Sprinkle with sea salt immediately if desired. Let cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a nutty twist, add chopped walnuts, pecans, or almonds.
- You can swap in white chocolate chips for a milder flavor.
- Try adding almond or hazelnut extract for an extra layer of flavor.
- Top with chocolate ganache or whipped cream for a more indulgent treat.
