Line a brownie tin (29 x 22cm) with baking paper.<\/p>\n 2. Set a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water, making sure the base of the bowl is not touching the water. Then, melt the chocolate with the butter inside the bowl. Stir the mass until smooth and then set aside to cool.<\/p>\n 3. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together, using a hand-held electric whisk. You want to achieve a pale and thickened consistency. Afterwards, add the melted chocolate and butter mix and fold it in until thoroughly combined. Fold in the flour, salt, chocolate chunks and vanilla extract.<\/p>\n 4. Once you combine everything together, pour the mixture into the prepared tin and sprinkle over the cocoa nibs. Bake for 25\u201330 minutes until the top is cracked and crusty. To check that your brownies are ready, you can insert a skewer into the centre. As you remove it, a little brownie mixture should still stick to the skewer.<\/p>\n 5. Once baked, leave the brownies to cool completely in the tin. Then cut them into individual pieces.<\/p>\n Hollywood added that you should store the final delicious creation in an airtight tin.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/14\/590x\/secondary\/best-chocolate-brownies-paul-hollywood-recipe-food-5113284.jpg?r=1702476349432\")
