Notes

• It’s essential to use high-quality chocolate chips or chopped chocolate for the best flavor and texture.
• Make sure to properly measure the flour, as using too much can result in a dry and crumbly texture.
• Do not overmix the batter, as this can lead to tough and dense brownies.
• Let the brownies cool completely before slicing, as they will continue to cook slightly as they cool.
• For extra fudgy brownies, try slightly underbaking them by a few minutes.
• Adding a pinch of salt to the batter can enhance the chocolate flavor and balance out the sweetness.
• If you prefer your brownies without nuts, simply omit them from the recipe.
• To create a clean and even cut, run your knife under hot water before slicing the brownies.
• You can serve the brownies warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent dessert.
• Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to 1 week.
