Ingredients

Directions

  1. Line an 8x8 inch glass baking dish with buttered wax paper or parchment paper.
  2. Break the unsweetened chocolate into small pieces and place them in a microwave-safe bowl with the butter.
  3. Microwave on high for 3 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the chocolate and butter are completely melted and smooth.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until the mixture is light and creamy.
  5. Sift the flour, salt, and baking powder together into another bowl to ensure there are no lumps.
  6. Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg and sugar mixture and stir to combine.
  7. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and fold gently until just combined; do not overmix.
  8. Stir in the chopped pecans or walnuts if using.
  9. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  10. Microwave on high for 8-1/2 minutes. Rotate the dish 1/4 turn three times during the cooking period to ensure even baking.
  11. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the dish to set.
  12. Lift the brownies out using the paper liner and cut into squares before serving.
