A cold, drizzly, wintery day called for making the ultimate comfort treat: Sinfully Rich Brownies. Lots of butter and lots of chocolate.  Ahhh, does life get any better than this?  One bite and I was HOOKED!  Did I already say sinfully rich?? Like biting into some creamy fudge masquerading as brownies. Heaven!  (Wait, did I just use the words “sin” and “heaven” to describe the same thing? Oops!)

Fudge Brownies Recipe Tips

The key to getting the perfect consistency is to 1) avoid over-mixing the batter and 2) avoid over-baking the brownies. Bake them just until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out “mostly” clean – meaning if there’s a tiny bit of smudging on the toothpick the brownies are perfect. Using cake flour also ensures a particular soft and tender crumb. And remember, chocolate brownies are only as good as the chocolate that you use, so use chocolate that you would enjoy eating plain.

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter , cut into cubes
  • 3 oz. unsweetened chocolate , finely chopped
  • 1 cup sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 large eggs , at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup cake flour
  • 3/4 cup bittersweet or semisweet chocolate chips (these brownies work wonderfully with white chocolate chips or even peanut butter chips as well)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease a 8 inch square baking dish. Glass is preferred.
  • Combine the butter and chopped unsweetened chocolate in a saucepan over low heat. Stir often until melted, 4-5 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the sugar and salt. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and stir until thoroughly blended. Sift the flour over the mixture and gently stir just until combined. Be careful not to over-stir. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly with a rubber spatula. Bake the brownies for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean. Be careful not to over-bake or the brownies will be dry. If you're using a metal baking dish you may need to bake it longer. Transfer the dish to a wire rack to cool completely, then cut into squares.
