The Perfect Fudgy Brownie Recipe

Preheat oven to 350ºF (175ºC). Grease a 9×9 baking dish (or you can line the dish with greased parchment paper, allowing some paper to hang over the sides of the dish for easy brownie removal).

In a large microwave-safe mixing bowl, add the butter. Melt for 1 minute in the microwave (or until the butter has just melted). Quickly mix in the chocolate chips with a spatula. They should easily melt into the butter. Add sugar and mix well with the spatula.

Crack in the eggs and beat them well with the spatula. Add flour, cocoa powder, salt, and vanilla extract. Mix to combine everything. Add walnuts and combine.

Pour mixture into the baking dish and bake for 30 minutes or until a fork poked into the center comes out mostly clean. These brownies are fudgy and moist so the fork doesn’t have to be completely clean for them to be perfectly ready. Enjoy!
