Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 170°C (or 160°C for fan ovens) to ensure even baking.
- Grease a 23x23 cm baking pan with a touch of butter or cooking spray and line it with parchment paper.
- In a heatproof bowl, combine the chocolate and butter, and melt them together using a double boiler or microwave.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs with both sugars for about 5 minutes until thick and creamy.
- Gently fold the cooled chocolate mixture into the egg and sugar blend along with the vanilla extract.
- Sift the flour, cocoa powder, and salt over the wet mixture and gently fold until just combined.
- If using nuts, gently fold them into the batter.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 30 minutes.
- Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 2 hours before slicing.

Notes
Ensure the sugar is fully dissolved during mixing to achieve a desirable crackly crust. Use room temperature eggs for better incorporation into the batter.
