RICH DOUBLE CHOCOLATE BROWNIES



Rich Double Chocolate Brownies image

I've been hunting for a GREAT homemade brownie recipe forever. I wanted dense, fudgy brownies that used ingredients I always have around the house. Finally, I broke down and created one. I combined a couple of the recipes that were best, and added my own creative tweaks, and the results were absolutely delicious!

Categories     Bar Cookie

Time 35m

Yield 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup melted butter
1 1/4 cups white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup quality cocoa powder
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9X9 inch cake pan. Other sized cake pan can be substituted, but a larger pan will result in thinner brownies, so reduce the heat to 325.
  • Melt butter in a medium saucepan. Stir in sugars, cocoa powder, eggs and vanilla. Once fully incorporated, add salt, flour and baking powder. Mix. Last, add chocolate chips and nuts (if desired).
  • Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a knife inserted into center comes out almost clean. Top should be crusty, and sides should be separated from the pan.

Categories     Chocolate     Dessert     Kid-Friendly     Kidney Friendly     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher     Small Plates

Yield 15-18 brownies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, plus more for pan, if needed
12 ounces bittersweet chocolate (about 70 percent), chopped
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
6 large eggs, at room temperature
3 cups sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 1/4 cups cake flour
Special Equipment:
A 13x9" baking pan

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease a 13x9" baking pan with room temperature butter or nonstick cooking spray, line the bottom with parchment, leaving a generous overhang on both long sides, and grease parchment with room temperature butter or nonstick cooking spray.
  • Combine 1 1/2 cups butter, chocolate, and cocoa powder in a large heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, stirring often, until mixture is melted and smooth. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Whip eggs, sugar, and salt in bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or using a hand mixer) on high speed, until tripled in size and lightened in color, 4-5 minutes. When you lift the whisk, the mixture should fall back on itself in thick ribbons and dissipate.
  • Add one-third egg mixture to reserved chocolate mixture and stir to combine with a spatula. Fold in remaining egg mixture in 2 batches. Sift in flour in three parts, gently folding with spatula after each addition. Pour evenly into prepared pan. Smooth top of batter with spatula.
  • Bake brownies, rotating in oven halfway through, until sides are visibly baked and center is set, 50-55 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack. After brownies have cooled, loosen edges with an offset spatula or a butter knife, then pull up both sides of the parchment to remove brownies from pan. Place brownies on parchment on a cutting board and cut into 15-18 pieces.

Time 50m

Yield 24 cupcakes, 12-24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

18 1/3 ounces fudge brownie mix
2 eggs
4 tablespoons milk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Add mixture into bowl with brownie mix and stir until smooth. Take out cupcake pan and coat with a non-stick spray. Scoop 2 tbs. of mixture into each section then place into oven for about 20 minute
  • FOR CHOCOLATE GLAZE: While the brownies cook you should start on the glaze. Melt butter in medium sauce pan on low heat. While that melts in a small bowl add milk with the cocoa powder, stir & set aside. Once the butter is melted add your cocoa powder/milk mixture. Stir out clumps as the glaze thickens (Note: Watch carefully, it could burn!) Bring the liquid to a boil Add in the confectioners sugar while glaze is still hot to reduce clumping. Mix briskly or you'll have chunks Makes about 2 cups of glaze which is enough to cover 24 cupcakes if done right. If your glaze isn't smooth or has clumps of confectioners sugar, place it back on the burner at medium heat for just a few more minutes. Be sure to stir the the glaze the whole time.
  • FOR GLAZED CHOCOLATE BROWNIE CUPCAKES: Once the brownies are done, remove from pan onto a plate and place into the freezer for quicker cooling. If your glaze has been done for a little while you should re-heat it so its warm. After about 10 minutes check your brownies (they should be cool now.) Now take your warm glaze and thoroughly drizzle each cupcake. Serve still drippy or wait about 15 minutes for glaze to harden up .For best results take a tablespoon or so of glaze and pour right on top. If its warm enough it should trickle along the sides of the cupcake, covering the whole thing. Add more if necessary.
