Ingredients

• 4 ounces Ghirardelli bittersweet chocolate baking bar (60% cacao or higher)
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 3 Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and grease an 8-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the bittersweet chocolate and butter. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each interval, until melted and smooth. Let it cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted chocolate mixture. Whisk together until well incorporated.

Step 4

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate chips for extra chocolatey goodness.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

Step 10

Once cooled, cut into 9 squares and serve. Enjoy your homemade Ghirardelli brownies!
