How to make it
-
Preheat the oven to 350F (180C
Preheat the oven to 350F (180C or 170C fan forced). Line an 8×8 inch (20×20 cm) baking pan with baking paper, leaving on overhang around the edges. Alternatively, lightly grease the pan.
-
Add the butter chopped into cubes
Add the butter chopped into cubes and finely chopped chocolate/chocolate chips to a large heatproof bowl. Melt using a double boiler over low heat. Or melt in the microwave in short 45-second intervals on medium power, and stir between each interval. Do not microwave on high power (which is often the default) as the chocolate can become grainy.
-
Whisk in the sugar, whisked eggs
Whisk in the sugar, whisked eggs and vanilla extract.
-
Whisk in the flour, cocoa and salt
If the flour or cocoa are lumpy, sift them into the batter first. Spoon about 1/2 of the batter into the prepared pan and smooth into an even layer. Place a layer of Kit Kat wafers on top and lightly press down. If you want the pan entirely covered, you will need to trim some wafers. I fit 21 wafers, but I had to trim some. Carefully drop spoonfuls of the remaining batter over the Kit Kats. Then spread the batter overtop to cover the wafers. Chop/crush the remaining wafers and sprinkle over top of the brownie batter.

Bake in the preheated oven for
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean or with a few damp crumbs.

Bake time will vary depending on
Bake time will vary depending on ovens and how gooey you like your brownies. Cool the brownies completely before slicing - this will take about 3-4 hours. If you lined the pan with parchment, lift the cooled brownies out of the pan and place on a cutting board. Always slice brownies with a sharp knife and not a table knife.
