275 g (1 1/4 cups) softened butter
375 g (1 7/8 cups) caster sugar
4 large eggs
75 g (5/8 cups) cocoa powder
100 g (3/4 cups) self raising flour
100 g (2/3 cups) plain chocolate chips

Pre-heat the oven to 180C / 160 Fan / 350F and grease and line a 30 x 23 cm baking tin with baking paper

Measure out the ingredients

Measure all the ingredients into a bowl. We used a small bowl to weigh everything out in turn and then added them into the mixing bowl.

Mix everything together

Either using a mixer with the paddle attachment or a large bowl with wooden spoons mix everything together until it looks evenly blended.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin, using a spatula spread the mixture gently into the corners and level the top.

Bake the chocolate brownies

Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes. It’s cooked when the top of the brownies have a nice crust or you can stick a skewer in the middle and it should come out clean. If it starts to look a bit brown on top, cover loosely with foil for the last 10 minutes.
Once they’re cooked, leave the brownies to cool in the tin then cut into 24 squares (or fewer if you want bigger pieces.)
