  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a square 8x8 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, melt the butter and chocolate chips together in the microwave or using a double boiler. Stir until smooth and completely combined.
  3. Add the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract to the melted chocolate mixture. Mix until well blended.
  4. Stir in the flour until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. (Don't overbake!)
  7. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting and serving. Enjoy!
