- 4 large eggs room temperature
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour

Notes
Storage: Store cooled brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. For longer storage, wrap tightly and freeze for up to 3 months; thaw at room temperature. Make-Ahead: The batter can be mixed, poured into the pan, covered, and refrigerated overnight; bake directly from the fridge, adding 2-3 minutes to the bake time. Variations: Add 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans with the chocolate chunks. For a mint twist, add 1/2 tsp peppermint extract with the vanilla. Serving: Serve slightly warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dusting of powdered sugar.
