Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 325Β°F (165Β°C) and butter and flour an 8-inch square baking pan to prevent sticking.

  2. Melt Chocolate and Butter: In a saucepan, melt the chocolate with the unsalted butter over low heat until smooth and well combined.

  3. Combine Sugar: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the white sugar until fully incorporated into the chocolate mixture.

  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Gradually add the eggs and vanilla extract to the chocolate mixture, stirring continuously until smooth and creamy.

  5. Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Add the all-purpose flour, salt, and chopped walnuts to the mixture, stirring until the batter is smooth and all ingredients are evenly distributed.

  6. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  7. Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for a few minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing into squares and serving.

Tips:

  • For an extra indulgent twist, serve these brownies warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
  • To enhance the flavor, you can add a sprinkle of sea salt on top of the brownies before baking.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer preservation.

Enjoy your Katharine Hepburn’s Brownies, and share the joy with friends and family! 🍫🍰
