["Preheat oven to 350u00b0 F. Grease an 8"" x 8"" baking pan and line with it parchment paper. (I like to leave a few inches of overhang on the sides to make it easy to lift the cooled brownies out).", "Melt together the butter and chocolate chips (you can either do this on the stovetop or in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each), until smooth. Let cool slightly.", "In a separate bowl, whisk together the rice flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder (if using), and salt.", "Add the sugar and vanilla to the melted chocolate/butter mixture. Mix until smooth.", "Mix in the eggs, one at a time, until the batter is smooth.", "Add the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. Stir in the toasted pecans.", "Pour the batter into your prepared pan and bake for about 40 minutes (depending on how gooey you want them! You can bake them longer, or keep them softer if you like-when they are gooier they freeze well)-keep checking after 40 minutes and take them out when a tester or knife inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs clinging to it.", "Let the brownies cool fully in the pan before slicing and serving."]

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
