Tips:
* Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly affect the taste of your brownies. Choose a chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60%. * Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined and there are no streaks of flour visible. * Bake the brownies in a preheated oven: This will help to ensure that the brownies bake evenly. * Don't overbake the brownies: Overbaking the brownies will make them dry and crumbly. Check the brownies for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached, the brownies are done. * Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent the brownies from crumbling. * Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
