Ingredients
1cupButter
1 3/4cupsSugar
1cupBrown Sugar
2teaspoonsVanilla Extract
4largeEggs
1cupUnsweetened Cocoa Powder
1 1/2cupsFlour
1/2teaspoonSalt
1 1/2cupsChocolate Chips or Chunks
Instructions
Start by browning the butter. In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Let the butter begin to slightly bubble. Watch it carefully as browned butter can burn quickly. Remove from heat and set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, beat together eggs, sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla for 3 minutes. Add the brown butter and beat for 1-2 minutes longer until the mixture is smooth.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.Fold in cocoa powder, flour, and salt. Check to make sure the brownie batter isn't too warm before folding in the chocolate. Once it isn't too warm, fold in chocolate.
Prepare the pan by placing a parchment paper sheet on the bottom and along the sides of the pan. Press into the sides. Pour the brownie batter into the pan. Spread evenly.
Bake for about 28-36 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out cleanly. I suggest underbaking the brownies rather than overbaking and the brownies will continue to bake after being removed from the oven.
Read the above post for instructions on cutting the brownies and what type of cocoa powder to use.
Notes
What type of pan should I use to make brownies?
For this Brown Butter Brownies Recipe, I suggest using a light-colored metal 9 x 13 baking pan. My favorite pans are USA baking pans.Glass pans take much longer to bake and will bake unevenly. I don't suggest using glass pans for baking any type of baked goods recipe.I suggest using parchment paper sheets to line the baking pan.
