Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Melt the semisweet chocolate and butter together using a double boiler or microwave until smooth.
In a mixing bowl, whisk melted chocolate mixture with granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla until combined.
In another bowl, sift the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Fold into the wet ingredients until just mixed.
Pour batter into prepared pan; bake for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely.
For the ganache, heat heavy cream until hot; pour over chopped chocolate, let sit for a few minutes, then stir until smooth.
Cut cooled brownies into squares; dip each square in ganache and place on a wire rack to set.
Sprinkle with Fleur de sel before serving.
