- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

Instructions
- Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
- Melt Chocolate and Butter: In a heatproof bowl over simmering water, melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter until smooth. Stir continuously.
- Mix Sugar and Eggs: In another bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs until frothy. Add the vanilla extract.
- Combine Mixtures: Fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg-sugar mixture until well blended. Gently fold in the chestnut puree.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Sift together flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Carefully fold this dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
