Ingredients
 

  • 5 tablespoon salted butter melted and cooled
  • cup (73.33 g) brown sugar
  • cup (66.67 g) sugar
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • ¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) salt
  • 5 tablespoon (25 g) cocoa powder
  • 7 tablespoon (61 g) all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup (45 g) chocolate chips
  • flaked salt for sprinkling

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 325 F. Line an 8x4 or 9x6 loaf pan with parchment paper and spray.
  • In a small mixing bowl, whisk melted butter with sugars, egg and vanilla for 2-3 minutes, until very light and fluffy.
  • Whisk in salt, cocoa powder and flour mixing until just combined, being careful not to over mix. Fold in chocolate chips.
  • Spread batter evenly in the pan and sprinkle with extra chocolate chips on top.
  • Bake for about 25-30 minutes. You want the edges to start to pull away from the sides of the pan and begin to darken. Top with flaked salt and  allow them to sit and firm up while they cool.

Notes

Swap chocolate chips for peanut butter or caramel chips, add nuts, or even skip the mix-ins altogether.
I have given both cups and grams as measurements. Grams will be more precise, especially when measuring flour. If you don’t have a kitchen scale, no problem! Just lightly spoon flour into your measuring cup to insure its not packed in there. Light and fluffy is the key.
