Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 160ºC (320ºF) with a fan or 170ºC (338ºF) for conventional.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Melt Chocolate and Butter
- In a heatproof bowl, combine the chopped dark chocolate and butter over simmering water, stirring until smooth. Add vanilla extract.
Whip Eggs and Sugars
- In another bowl, beat the caster and Demerara sugars with the eggs using an electric whisk until light and fluffy (about 5 minutes).
Combine Dry Ingredients
- Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Add chocolate chips.
Integrate Mixtures
- Fold the melted chocolate mixture into the whipped eggs and sugars gently.
- Carefully fold in the dry ingredients using a spatula until just combined.
Bake the Brookies
- Scoop tablespoonfuls of the batter onto the prepared tray, allowing space to spread.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes until tops are crackly.
Cool and Finish
- Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt if desired, then cool on the tray for 10 minutes before transferring to a rack.
Notes
Make the batter ahead and refrigerate for later use. Baked Brookies keep fresh for 3-4 days at room temperature or about a week in the fridge.
