Double Fudge Whole Wheat Brownies
- Ready In:
- 1hr
- Ingredients:
- 10
- Yields:
-
24 brownies
ingredients
- 236.59 ml unsalted butter
- 473.18 ml brown sugar, packed
- 177.44 ml dutch process cocoa
- 4.92 ml baking powder
- 4.92 ml salt
- 4.92 ml espresso powder (optional)
- 14.79 ml vanilla extract
- 4 large eggs
- 354.88 ml whole wheat flour
- 473.18 ml semi-sweet chocolate chips
directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F Lightly grease a 9 x 13 pan.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Add the sugar and stir to combine. Heat briefly until it is hot and beginning to bubble. This dissolves more of the sugar, giving you a shiny top on the finished brownies.
- Stir in the cocoa, baking powder, salt, espresso powder (if using--I never do), and vanilla. Cool until you can test it with your finger. (I put it in the fridge for 5 minutes if I'm in a hurry.) Whisk in the eggs, stirring until it is smooth and slightly thickened, then add the flour and chocolate chips. Stir again until smooth.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, bake 30-35 minutes, or until a cake tester shows wet crumbs, but not raw batter. (Mine always looks wet to me, but I think it's the chocolate chips!)
- Remove from the oven and cool the pan on a wire rack. My DH eats them as soon as they are cool enough to handle! My cookbook recommends waiting overnight before serving. This allows the bran to soften.
- Enjoy!

These were so good! We tried some right out of the oven and they tasted great but were definetly better after 24 hours. I cut them up into tiny pieces and enjoyed them all week. Also, I made them with regular cocoa powder as I forgot to pick up the dutch process. After some research (while the brownies were baking), I was afraid they would not turn out, but they were just fine. I will try the dutch process powder next time, but I can't imagine they could taste any better!

Absolutely fantastic! These are so rich and chocolatey. A thick, almost cakey brownie. Because they are so thick, the servings are pretty generous. You'd never know these were whole wheat. King Arthus Flour's Whole Grain Baking is one of my favorite cookbooks. Thanks for sharing such a wonderful recipe! Made for PAC Fall 2007.

I'm a stay at home mom of 2 beautiful girls, 4 years and 1 year. My favorite cookbooks are King Arthur Flour Whole Grain Baking and RecipeZaar! I find that most of my free time is spent cooking or looking for new recipes to try. I'm on a mission to eliminate high fructose corn syrup and hydrogenated oils from my diet and add more whole grains. In 8 months, I've lost 15 pounds by making these simple changes. I wany my girls to grow up making healthy food choices, without feeling like they're missing out on something.
