Dark chocolate has less sugar.

Prep your baking tin with butter and parchment paper.

Melt the butter and mix it with cocoa powder and espresso powder to create a ganache.

Add granulated sugar and dark brown sugar to the mixture.

Crack 6 eggs into a separate bowl, then add them to the sugar mixture one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Beat the eggs and sugar until the mixture is thick and airy, resembling pancake batter.

Sift the all-purpose flour and Dutch processed cocoa powder into the mixture to avoid lumps.

Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture quickly to maintain airiness.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking tin and smooth it out.

Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes, then remove and slam the tin on the counter to crack the top.

After 45 minutes of baking, check with a toothpick; it should come out with some fudginess on it, indicating they are done.

Let the brownies cool, then cut them into squares, cleaning the knife after each cut.
