Report
These brownies are an American classic and so easy to make with everyday pantry ingredients. Turns out dark, rich, intense, chewy fudge brownies.

Ingredients
- 1 tick (4 oz) unsalted butter plus more for buttering the pan
- 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup roughly chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Butter an 8-inch square baking pan. Line the pan with parchment paper and butter the paper.
- Melt the 1 stick (4 oz) unsalted butter and 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate together in a large saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until combined.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the 1 cup granulated sugar.
- Add the 2 large eggs and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract and stir to make a smooth batter.
- Add the ¼ cup all-purpose flour, ¼ teaspoon salt, and 1 cup roughly chopped walnuts, if using, and stir until incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool on a rack. Cut into squares and serve.
Notes
- Cut them cleanly--To cut clean, even squares, let the brownies cool completely before slicing.
- Storage--Store the brownies in a sealed container at room temperature for up to 4 days, or freeze for longer storage. Separate layers with sheets of parchment paper to prevent them from sticking together.
