Smitten Kitchen's Favorite Brownie Recipe

Makes 1 8�8 pan of brownies which you can cut into 16 2-inch squares, 25 smaller squares, or 32 2�1-inch bites.

 

3 ounces Chocolates El Rey Gran Saman 70% and Mijao 61% (1.5 oz. of each) discos or blocks, roughly chopped
1 stick (4 ounces or 115 grams) unsalted butter, plus extra for pan
1 1/3 cups (265 grams) granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon flaky sea salt or 1/4 teaspoon table salt (about 2 grams)

2/3 cup (85 grams) all-purpose flour

 

Heat oven to 350�F. Line an 8�8-inch square baking pan with parchment, extending it up two sides, or foil. Butter the parchment or foil or spray it with a nonstick cooking spray.

In a medium heatproof bowl over gently simmering water, melt the Gran Saman & Mijao chocolate and butter together until only a couple unmelted bits remain. Off the heat, stir until smooth and fully melted. You can also do this in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between each. Whisk in sugar, then eggs, one at a time, then vanilla and salt. Stir in flour with a spoon or flexible spatula and scrape batter into prepared pan, spread until even. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out batter-free.

Let cool and cut into desired size. If desired, dust the brownies with powdered sugar before serving.
