Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (227 grams, 2 sticks) unsalted butter
- 2 ⅓ cups (450 grams) granulated sugar
- 2 large (100 grams) eggs
- 2 large (36 grams) egg yolks
- 1 cup (106 grams) Dutch-processed cocoa
- ½ cup (100 grams) sourdough starter discard

- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon (3 grams) Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt
- 2 cups (340 grams) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and place a rack in the middle. Grease and line an 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, whisk in the granulated sugar until well combined.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and add the eggs and egg yolks, mixing thoroughly until the mixture is smooth.

- Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and all-purpose flour, mixing until just combined.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 60-75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for 1 hour, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, slice into 16 squares and enjoy!
