Chocolate Brownies



Chocolate is a girl’s best friend and I am no different. This is my favorite go-to brownie recipe. Very simple to make and end result is just yum…. Save this recipe for those chocolate craving days.


One reminder. If you want awesome result, use the best ingredients. It makes all the difference.
So here is the recipe and I am sure you will love it.



Ingredients:
1/2 cup + 5 tbsp unbleached All-purpose flour
1 stick Butter
4 oz Bitter sweet chocolate
2 Eggs
1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
3/4 cup Sugar
Pinch salt
4 oz. Semisweet chocolate chips.
(All the ingredients should be room temperature)


Preparation:
Preheat oven to 425 deg.F.
Butter and flour a 9x7” oven proof glass dish and keep it aside.


Boil some water in a saucepan.
Break the chocolate into little chunks and place it in a bowl along with the butter.


Place this bowl on top of the saucepan and keep stirring till all the chocolate and butter melts. (make sure the bottom of the bowl is not touching the water. Use a double boiler if you have it). Keep it aside.



In another bowl, take the egg, sugar and vanilla extract and mix thoroughly with a hand mixer. (I used my hands to mix it. I think it is fun). Mix for a good 10 min until all the sugar is dissolved and mixture is pale yellow in color.


Now pour the melted chocolate slowly and mix to combine.


In a bowl combine the flour and salt together.
Now add the flour slowly. Mix just to combine the flour.


Fold in the chocolate chips.


Transfer to the baking dish, level and bake for 25-30 min till the brownies begin to pull away from the sides.


Cool and cut into squares.


Have your brownie the way you like it, with milk, a scoop of vanilla ice-cream, with chocolate sauce or just as it is.. Happy holidays!!!
