Because chocolate brownies aren’t chocolatey enough. We got on a brownie kick sometime last fall, and I started playing with proportions and chocolates. While you can use something like a bittersweet chocolate, the darkest flint (the gorgeous, crunchy texture on top) comes only from using something like a Baker’s unsweetened chocolate like I did here.

Double Chocolate Brownies

Double Chocolate Brownies

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped into small pieces
  • 3/4 cup salted butter
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 4 eggs, whisked
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups bittersweet dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F (convection or regular bake).
  2. Butter and flour a 9×13 metal baking pan.
  3. In a medium sized mixing bowl, melt the 3/4 cup butter and unsweetened baker’s chocolate either in microwave or on stove top. For microwave, do it in increments of 45 seconds on a reduced heat (power 7 or 8). If need be, let cool for several minutes.
  4. Add the sugar to the melted butter-chocolate mixture. It should be close to room temperature after you add the sugar.
  5. Next, with a wooden spoon or spatula, add the whisked eggs and vanilla until well blended.
  6. Fold the flour and salt in until fully combined.
  7. Finally, fold the 2 cups of bittersweet dark chocolate chips.
  8. Bake at 350F for 28 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. This recipe makes a decadent brownie that can be cut into 30, 1.5” squares.
