Double Fudge Whole Wheat Brownies
- Reviews 3
Ready In: 1 hr
Yields: 24 brownies
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups brown sugar, packed
- 3⁄4 cup dutch process cocoa
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon espresso powder (optional)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 4 large eggs
- 1 1⁄2 cups whole wheat flour
- 2 cups 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!
