Brownies, take 3...YUMMY!
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup baking cocoa (I favor Ghirardelli's natural cocoa)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, cut into pieces
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 large egg yolk
- 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup bittersweet chocolate chips, beaten into submission
- 1 bag milk chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350F. Grease 18-cake cupcake tin or use cupcake cups.
Combine flour, cocoa and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs and extra yolk, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla extract, bitterweet chips, and cream; mix well. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Then mix in milk chocolate chips.
Pour mixture into each cup. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until toothpick inserted comes out clean (or moist with crumbs sticking to it...no batter should come out).
This recipe is a work in progress. This is "take three."
notes: brownie texture...very rich, very chocolatey, a little crumbly, a little chewy, QUITE moist. I'm very happy with these. This may be my recipe!
