Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. Ghirardelli is a good choice, but you can use any brand you like.
  • Make sure your butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the ingredients mix together more smoothly.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the brownies tough.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.
  • If you don't have time to make the frosting, you can simply dust the brownies with powdered sugar.
