Ghirardelli Chocolate Brownies
Ingredients
  • 4 ounces Ghirardelli Semi-Sweet Chocolate Baking Bar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup Ghirardelli Semi-Sweet Chocolate Baking Chips
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to its optimal temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
2
Prepare a baking pan by coating it with butter and then dusting it with flour, making sure to cover the entire surface of an 8-inch square pan.
3
Cut the baking bar into small, uniform pieces and place them on top of a double boiler or a heat-resistant bowl.
4
Combine the chopped chocolate with additional butter and place the pan or bowl over just below a gentle simmer.
5
Melt the chocolate mixture, stirring occasionally, until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. Remove the pan from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
6
Mix together brown sugar, vanilla extract, and the cooled chocolate mixture until well combined.
7
Add eggs one at a time to the chocolate mixture, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
8
In a separate bowl, sift together flour, salt, and baking powder to create a well-blended mixture.
9
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the chocolate mixture, stirring until everything is thoroughly incorporated and well combined.
10
Stir in the remaining chocolate chips to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
11
Pour the finished mixture into the prepared baking pan.
12
Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
13
Once done, remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting into 2-inch squares.
