These brownies are the stuff that dreams are made of. Topped with a paper-thin crust, their insides are moist, dense, and intensely chocolate. For best results use only high-quality chocolate and cocoa e.g., Scharffen Berger, Callebaut, or Schokinage may be used.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cups India Tree Light Muscovado Sugar
  • 1/3 cup milk chocolate baking chunks (1 1/2 oz)
  • 1/3 cup white chocolate baking chunks (1 1/2 oz)

Equipment

  • 8 x 8-inch baking pan
  • Aluminum foil
  • Medium-sized mixing bowl
  • Measuring cups – dry
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Flour sifter
  • Large, heavy saucepan
  • Wooden spoon
  • Cooling Rack

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
  2. Line the bottom and sides of an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with foil. Grease the foil with shortening.
  3. In a medium bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Set aside.
  4. Melt butter in a large, heavy saucepan over low heat, stirring frequently until smooth. Off the heat, mix in the sugar until smooth. Then beat in the eggs, one at a time, until each is incorporated. Beat in the flour mixture and when mixed, fold in the milk chocolate and white chocolate baking chunks.
  5. Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean, with just a few crumbs sticking to it.
  6. Carefully transfer the brownies, still in the foil, onto a rack to cool completely.
  7. To serve, cut into 16 squares and peel away the foil.
