Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a greased or parchment-lined 9×13-inch baking pan.
Melt semisweet chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl over simmering water; stir until smooth.
In a mixing bowl, whisk melted mixture with sugars, then add eggs one at a time along with vanilla extract.
In another bowl, mix flour, cocoa powder, and salt; fold into wet ingredients until just combined.
Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs. Cool completely.
For ganache, heat heavy cream until simmering; pour over chopped chocolate and stir until smooth.
Cut cooled brownies into squares or rectangles, dip in ganache, set on wire rack to cool, then sprinkle with Fleur de sel.
