Fudgy Chocolate Brownies
Jun 23rd, 2009 by Melinda
I found this recipe for Martha Stewart’s Fudgy Chocolate Brownies and thought I’d make some from scratch. I did change the recipe around some-I used organic cane sugar because we really don’t keep white sugar in the house- also, I didn’t add the salt because I use organic salted butter and I also used Lindt dark chocolate bars instead of the bittersweet chocolate.
Wow, these turned out fabulous! They were perfect- moist, falling apart and so easy to make. The hubby raved about them! I will definitely be making these again!
Ingredients
Makes 16
-
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, plus more for pan
- 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
-
1 1/2 cups sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan or heatproof glass dish. Line pan with parchment paper, leaving a 1-inch overhang on 2 sides. Set aside. Place butter and chocolate in a large heatproof bowl set over (but not touching) simmering water; stir frequently until chocolate and butter are melted, about 7 minutes. Remove bowl from heat; let cool to room temperature, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Stir sugar into cooled chocolate mixture until combined. Whisk in eggs one at a time, whisking until smooth after each addition. Whisk in vanilla. Gently fold in flour and salt.
- Pour batter into prepared pan, and smooth top with an offset spatula. Bake until cake tester inserted in the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs attached, 40 to 45 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Run a knife or offset spatula around the edges of the pan. Using parchment, lift brownies out of pan and onto the rack. Transfer to a cutting board; cut into 2-inch squares. Brownies can be kept in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
