Ingredients

• 113 grams unsalted butter
• 170 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 200 grams granulated sugar
• 50 grams brown sugar
• 3 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon orange zest
• 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 120 grams all-purpose flour
• 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon baking powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy brownie removal.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth. Allow to cool slightly.

Step 3

Whisk in the granulated sugar and brown sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until combined.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Mix in the orange zest, orange juice, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.

Step 6

Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Be mindful not to overbake, as you want the brownies to remain fudgy.

Step 9

Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang.

Step 10

Slice into 12 squares and serve. Enjoy the rich chocolate and refreshing orange flavors!
