How to Make Classic Unsweetened Chocolate Brownies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with foil, leaving an overhang on two opposite sides for easy removal.
- In a heatproof bowl set over a pot of barely simmering water (double boiler), melt 6 ounces (170g) of unsweetened chocolate and 1/2 cup (113g) of unsalted butter, stirring frequently until completely smooth and melted.
- Remove from heat and whisk in 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until well combined.
- Add 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Whisk until the batter is smooth and glossy.
- Gently fold in 1/2 cup (60g) all-purpose flour until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in 1/2 cup (60g) chopped walnuts or pecans (optional).
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached (it shouldn't be completely clean).
- Let cool completely in the pan before lifting out using the foil overhang. Cut into squares and enjoy!
