Brownies. Finally. Really.

About a month ago I started making loads and loads of brownies from scratch, something I've never done before. I've tried probably 6 recipes all small success with ultimate failures. Today, friends, I think I might have done it, and because it was such a long journey here, I better commit this to blog before I forget.

Ingredients



  • 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter
  • 1 stick unsalted European butter
  • 3 1/2 oz 70% chocolate
  • 1 3/4 oz 80% chocolate
  • 2 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 5 eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 T vanilla
  • 1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 t salt

Directions



Spray an 8 x 8 pan with cooking spray and line with parchment paper. Repeat with another spray of cooking spray.

  1. Melt the chocolate and butter in the microwave. Pour the melted mixture into a mixing bowl and add in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Mix until just together.
  2. Sift in flour and salt stirring until just combined. Now you can add in whatever extra you like such as nuts, marshmallow, candy bar pieces, chocolate chips, whatever.
  3. Bake at 350 for 35 minutes, testing after 25 for doneness.
