Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup walnuts
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal.

  2. 2

    In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the 1/2 cup butter and 1 cup chocolate chips, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  3. 3

    Whisk in the 1 cup sugar and 2 eggs until well combined. The mixture should be glossy and smooth.

  4. 4

    Fold in the 1/2 cup flour and 1/4 teaspoon salt until just combined; do not overmix. The batter will be thick and shiny.

  5. 5

    Stir in the 1/2 cup walnuts, reserving a few for the top if desired. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.

  6. 6

    Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the top is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Do not overbake.

  7. 7

    Let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack, then lift out using the parchment and cut into 9 squares.
