how to make Triple Chocolate Brownies

Work step by step. Read the list and get each item ready. Use a pan that fits the bake time. Keep eggs at room heat so they mix well. For a close mix tip, see tips below and a cookie idea like maple cinnamon cookies for texture notes.

Ingredients :

1/2 cup (110g) unsalted butter, 1 cup (180g) semi sweet chocolate chips, 4 large eggs (200g), room temperature, 1 cup (210g) granulated sugar, 1/2 cup (120g) light brown sugar, 2/3 cup (93g) all purpose flour, 1/2 cup (42g) cocoa powder, 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1 cup (180g) chocolate chips of choice + other desired mix-ins

Directions :

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a 9×9 inch pan with parchment paper. Spray the paper with cooking spray to ensure the brownies are easy to remove from the pan after baking and cooling.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt chopped unsalted butter and chocolate chips together over medium heat. Stir constantly to ensure the chocolate does not burn. After the two are fully combined and melted, set aside to cool slightly as you prepare your other ingredients.
In a large bowl, whisk room temperature eggs, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together until smooth. Do not overmix.
Pour melted butter and chocolate mixture into the bowl and whisk until combined throughout. Again, only mix until just combined.
Add properly-measured all purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt to the batter and whisk only until you see the dry ingredients disappear. Mixing longer could result in dry brownies.
Fold chocolate chips and other desired mix-ins into the batter until distributed evenly throughout. Pour the batter into your prepared pan.
Bake the brownies for 30-40 minutes or until the top is shiny, beginning to crack, and the center does not jiggle. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with some batter.

how to serve Triple Chocolate Brownies

Cut the brownies in squares when they cool. Serve warm or cool. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a rich mix. You can also pair with a simple loaf like chocolate banana bread for a snack plate.

how to store Triple Chocolate Brownies

Keep brownies in an airtight box at room temp for 3 days. Put them in the fridge for up to 1 week. Freeze slices in a tight wrap for 2 months. Thaw at room heat or warm in the oven.

tips to make Triple Chocolate Brownies

Use room temp eggs for smooth mix. Do not overmix the batter once you add flour. Let the melted chocolate cool a bit so it does not cook the eggs. Use good cocoa for deep taste. For more cake tips see double frosted cake notes.

variation (if any)

Add chopped nuts for a crunch. Use dark chips for more bite. Swap half the chips for white chocolate for color. Add a pinch of espresso powder to lift the chocolate taste.
