Time 2h5m

Yield 24 brownies

Number Of Ingredients 14

Nonstick cooking spray
3 ancho chiles, seeds and stems removed
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups light brown sugar
2 sticks unsalted butter, cut into cubes
6 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
5 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a 13-by-9-inch pan with foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang, and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Toast the ancho chiles in a medium skillet over medium heat, stirring often, until softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Let cool completely. Transfer to a food processor and pulse until roughly chopped, then remove 1/4 cup of the chiles and set aside. Add the flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, baking powder and salt to the bowl of the food processor and pulse until well combined and the chiles are finely chopped.
  • Heat the brown sugar, butter and 1 cup water in a large saucepan over medium heat, whisking occasionally, until the butter and sugar melt, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the unsweetened chocolate, then let cool 10 minutes. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla. Add the flour mixture and whisk until smooth, then pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean, about 30 minutes. Put on a cooling rack and sprinkle with the bittersweet chocolate, then let sit until soft enough to spread, about 5 minutes. Spread the chocolate in an even layer with a spatula and sprinkle with the reserved chiles and cayenne. Let cool completely, then cut into brownies.

Time 1h5m

Yield 36 (1 1/2 inch) square brownie

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 ounces good quality bittersweet chocolate, plus 6 ounces
3 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 1/2 tablespoons water
2 eggs
3/4 cup flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups walnuts, coarsely chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine 6 ounces chocolate with butter, sugar, and water. Cook over low heat, stirring, until melted. Set aside to cool a bit. Break up the remaining chocolate and stir into melted chocolate mixture. Whisk in eggs, flour, and salt. Add walnuts if desired. Batter will be thick and lumpy. Spray a 9-inch square pan with non-stick spray and scrape batter into pan. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes. Set on rack to cool. Garnish with powdered sugar.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A good semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate will work well.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the brownies tough.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to set and hold their shape.
  • Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
