Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180 C (350 F) standard or 160 C (320 F) fan-forced. Grease and line an 8-inch square or round baking pan with baking or parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar and eggs and whisk together vigorously for about 30 seconds until creamy and combined.
In a microwave-safe bowl, place the butter and dark chocolate. Heat in the microwave, checking and stirring every 20 seconds until melted and smooth.
Add the melted chocolate and butter to the egg-sugar mixture and whisk until smooth.
Incorporate the flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the mixture, stirring gently with a spatula until a thick and smooth brownie batter develops. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Transfer the brownie batter to the prepared baking pan, smoothing it out evenly. Bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the top is shiny and the center is firm with a toothpick coming out almost clean.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares. Store at room temperature, in the fridge, or freeze for longer storage.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use higher cocoa content chocolate between 60-70%.
Store brownies in an airtight container for up to a week, or freeze for two months for optimal freshness.
