Ingredients

  • 7 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
  • 2.75 ounces milk or semisweet chocolate (chopped)
  • cup granulated sugar
  • cup light brown sugar
  • 2 eggs (at room temperature)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • tablespoons cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • cup semisweet or milk chocolate chips
  • Vanilla ice cream (for serving)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 6'' cast iron skillet with butter and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Add the granulated and light brown sugar to the butter, whisking until well incorporated. Crack the eggs in one at a time, then add the vanilla. Whisk the mixture until it is smooth and has lightened slightly in color.
  • In a small bowl, melt the chocolate in the microwave (or over a double boiler). Pour the melted chocolate into the egg and sugar mixture, then whisk well.
  • Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, add in the chocolate chips, and fold everything until just combined.
  • Pour the brownie batter into a 6'' cast iron skillet and bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes. If you insert a toothpick into the center of the brownie, it's okay if there's some brownie residue, as it will continue cooking in the pan.
  • Remove the skillet from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Top with flaky salt and ice cream. Serve immediately.
