Ingredients
  

For the Brownie Base

  • 1 cup unsalted butter brings a rich, creamy texture to the brownies.
  • 2 cups granulated sugar sweetens the mix and helps achieve that perfect fudgy consistency.
  • 4 large eggs essential for binding and adding moisture to the batter.

Step-by-Step Instructions for French Silk Brownies

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until the batter is silky and smooth.
  • Sift in cocoa powder, flour, vanilla extract, and salt; gently stir until just combined.
  • Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes before cutting into squares.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs for better mixing. Don’t overmix to maintain texture. Store in an airtight container.
