Soft, rich brownies with deep chocolate flavor.
1. Preheat to 325°F (162°C). Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment or foil, leaving overhangs for easy removal.
2. In a saucepan over medium-low heat, melt butter fully. Remove from heat before browning.
3. While butter is hot, stir in sugar, cocoa, vanilla, and salt until combined. Batter may look gritty, don’t worry.
4. Let sit 5–10 minutes until warm to the touch.
5. Stir in cold eggs one at a time, mixing vigorously after each.
6. Stir in flour until batter is thick and pulls from the sides, about 40–50 strokes.
7. Fold in nuts or chocolate chips, if using.
8. Spread batter evenly in pan. Bake 20–30 minutes until edges are set and center is slightly underbaked. Toothpick should come out with moist crumbs.
9. Cool completely in pan or chill 1–2 hours and slice with a sharp knife, wiping between cuts.
