Ingredients

1 stick unsalted butter 8 tablespoons
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon vanilla
3/4 cup flour
1 1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1/2 cup sourdough discard

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 and prepare a 9×9 pan by lining with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan over low/medium heat, melt butter. Take off heat and add chocolate chips and vanilla. Stir until all melted together.
In a medium or large bowl, combine flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Stir to combine.
Pour chocolate butter mixture into the dry ingredients.
Add in eggs and sourdough discard.
Stir well until there are no clumps.
Pour into prepared pan.
Bake 40 minutes in prepared 9 X9 pan or until a toothpick comes out clean and the middle is set.
Allow to cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help it set up and also develop the flavors.

Notes

Make sure your eggs are room temperature. If you forgot to take your eggs out of the fridge ahead of time, you can bring them up to room temperature by placing them in a bowl of hot water for 5-10 minutes.
Allow the brownies to cool totally before cutting. Once they are completely cooled, the flavor will have developed, and the brownies will hold together.
Long ferment the dough overnight to add more delicious tang from the fermentation of the grains.
