Instructions
1
Prep
Preheat the oven to 350F and line a small ramekin or mini loaf pan with parchment, overhanging the sides.
2
Melt
Combine the dark chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl set over simmering water on low heat, stirring 2-3 minutes until fully melted and glossy.
3
Whisk
Off the heat, whisk the sugar and egg into the chocolate mixture until lighter in color and slightly thickened, about 1 minute.
4
Fold
Sift the cocoa powder, flour, and salt over the batter and fold in with vanilla extract until just combined and no dry streaks remain.
5
Bake
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake at 350F for 20-25 minutes until the top looks matte and crackly and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
6
Cool
Let the brownie cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes until firm enough to lift out and slice cleanly.
7
Store
Lift the brownie out using the parchment overhang and keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
