Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Step 2
Melt butter and chocolate together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring between pulses until smooth.
Step 3
Whisk sugar and eggs into the chocolate until no streaks remain, then fold in flour and cocoa powder until just combined.
Step 4
Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Step 5
Bake 12–14 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Step 6
Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack or cut into squares while warm.
