Ingredients

  • 200g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 100g butter (salted or unsalted)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 100g caster or granulated sugar
  • 50g demerara or raw sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 90g all-purpose flour
  • 25g cocoa powder
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 100g dark or milk chocolate chips
  • Optional: Flaky sea salt, for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 160ºC fan / 170ºC conventional (325–340ºF). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the dark chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl over simmering water or gently in the microwave. Stir in vanilla and set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs with both sugars for about 5 minutes until pale and thick.
  4. Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  5. Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the whipped eggs.
  6. Fold in the dry ingredients until just combined. Batter will be thick and gooey.
  7. Scoop dough onto the tray, spacing well apart.
  8. Bake for 12–14 minutes, until tops are crackly and edges are just set.
  9. Cool on tray for 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired.

Notes

  • Mix chocolate chips (dark, milk, or white) for variety.
  • Add chopped walnuts or pecans for crunch.
  • For gluten-free brookies, use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend.
  • A teaspoon of espresso powder enhances chocolate flavor without adding coffee taste.
  • Chill the dough for thicker brookies; bake slightly warm for flatter ones.
