Tips:

Use high-quality chocolate. The type of chocolate you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your brownies. Look for a chocolate with a high cocoa content (70% or higher) and a rich, dark flavor.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Bake the brownies until they are just set. 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 falling apart.
Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
