Ingredients
- 2 cups unsalted butter
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
- 4 cups granulated sugar
- 8 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 cups M&M’s candies, divided
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, remove from heat and add 1/2 cup of the semi-sweet chocolate chips along with the sugar. Stir until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
- Mix in the vanilla extract.
- Sift together the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder in a separate bowl. Gradually fold this dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined, ensuring not to overmix.
- Fold in the remaining semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of M&M’s candies.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Sprinkle the remaining M&M’s candies over the top of the batter.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 38 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting out using the parchment paper overhang and cutting into squares.
