Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°. Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with foil and lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

In the microwave, melt butter and dark chocolate chips in a large, microwave-safe measuring cup, in 20-second intervals, until melted. Stir until smooth. Set aside.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk eggs until frothy. Add brown sugar and whisk for 1 minute, or until the mixture is smooth. Gradually add the melted chocolate mixture into the egg-sugar mixture, and mix well for 1 minute, or until the chocolate is smooth and glossy.

Step 5

If desired, layer nuts and/or semisweet chocolate chips over the top of the batter and press them in slightly. Bake for 33 to 35 minutes, or until the brownies are set. Do not overbake. Cool on a wire rack; remove the brownies from the pan by gripping the foil edges. Chill before
