Trust me once you see how easy these are to make, you'll be making them for every event moving forward. Easy prep time with maximum flavor? Yes please! Some notes for you. Browning your butter is totally optional but will help bring out those nutty flavors.
Prep Your Oven & Ingredients
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease your 9x9 square pan. You can always line it with a parchment paper which is what I prefer. I like to pre measure my ingredients into bowls to ensure I don’t miss anything. I also pre-chop my chocolate.
Brown Your Butter
- Take a saucepan over medium heat, add your butter and allow it to melt. Continuously stirring once it comes to a simmer. Keeping an eye on it to ensure a nice brown color. Remove from heat once achieved. Be careful not to burn your butter.
Whisk Your Wet Ingredients
- Combine both brown and granulated sugar with the melted butter and vanilla. Whisk well. Then add your eggs one at a time, mixing well in between.
Add Your Dry Ingredients
- Add in your flour, baking soda, baking powder, & salt. Fold your dry ingredients into your wet ingredients. Don’t over mix.
Chop and add your chocolate
- Take a sharp knife and a wood cutting board and chop your dark chocolate bar into thick pieces and thoroughly incorporate your chocolate into your dough
Bake
- Add your mix into your pan and bake at 350 degrees for 20-22 minutes
Let Cool & Enjoy!
- The secret to gooey bars is to allow them to finish baking outside of the oven and to cut them once cooled. They will keep their bar shape and the chocolate will still give that pull-apart ooze. (Which you and I both know is the best part!)
