Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 160ºC (320ºF) with a fan or 170ºC (338ºF) for regular heating. Line your baking tray with parchment paper.
Melting Chocolate and Butter
- In a heatproof bowl, combine chopped dark chocolate and butter. Place over simmering water, stirring until melted. Add vanilla extract and stir to combine.
Whipping Eggs and Sugars
- In a medium bowl, whip together caster sugar, demerara sugar, and eggs using an electric whisk until light, thick, and fluffy—about 5 minutes.
Combining Ingredients
- In another bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the whipped egg mixture.
- Carefully fold in the dry ingredients until just combined.
Baking
- Scoop tablespoons of the batter onto the prepared baking tray, leaving space between each one. Bake for 12-14 minutes until crackly tops form.
Cooling
- After baking, sprinkle with sea salt if desired. Cool on the tray for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
