Triple Chocolate Brownies

Submitted by Ceezie

"I got this recipe and melting chocolate tip from Sunset Magazine. If you like super chocolate, fudgy brownies - then these are for you. I think these would be great with white chocolate chips too or in lieu of the semi sweet chips."

 

• Ready In: 30mins
• Ingredients: 9
• Yields: 1 pan
• Serves: 8-12

ingredients

• 85.04 g bittersweet chocolate, chopped
• 118.29 ml butter
• 236.59 ml light brown sugar
• 4.92 ml vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 118.29 ml all-purpose flour
• 59.14 ml unsweetened cocoa (not Dutch-processed)
• 2.46 ml salt
• 236.59 ml semi-sweet chocolate chips

directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°. In a double boiler over simmering water, melt chocolate and butter (see "Melting Chocolate the Easy Way - below," below, for another method). Stir in brown sugar and vanilla. Take off heat. Add eggs and mix thoroughly. Add flour, cocoa, and salt, mixing until smooth. Stir in chocolate chips.
2. Pour batter into an 8-inch square pan. Bake until a toothpick or knife inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs sticking to it, 20 to 25 minutes.
3. Note: Melting chocolate the easy way: Double boilers are great for gently melting chocolate, but we've found an even easier method that uses common kitchen equipment. Put chopped chocolate in a small metal bowl along with any other ingredients you need to melt, such as butter. In a large frying pan over high heat, bring about an inch of water to a low boil. Take pan off the heat and set the bowl in the water. Let sit, stirring occasionally, until chocolate is melted, 5 to 10 minutes.

These are luscious! A wonderful brownie base that you can add all sorts of things to - toffee bits, chopped up dried cherries, toasted and chopped nuts, etc... Because there is so little flour used, it was easy to change for my daughter's gluten free diet (I used Pamela's GF Artisan Flour). Try these, they're great!
