Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 12 oz milk chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder + 2 Tbsp
  • 3 eggs large
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and line an 8-inch round pan with parchment.
  • Melt butter and chocolate morsels together (microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth).
  • Whisk in sugar and cocoa powder until fully combined.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each.
  • Stir in vanilla.
  • Pour into pan and smooth the top.
  • Bake 25–30 minutes, until the center is just set. (It should still have a slight jiggle — it firms up as it cools.)
