Best Elsyes Brownies Recipes

ELSA'S BROWNIES

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-inch square baking dish with foil and grease with cooking spray.
• Melt the semisweet chocolate and butter in a medium heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth.
• Beat together the sugar and eggs in a stand mixer on medium-high speed until creamed, about 3 minutes. Pour in the chocolate mixture and whisk until combined well. Mix in the flour, baking powder and salt for about 2 minutes on medium speed. Stir in the bittersweet chocolate chunks and transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish.
• Bake until the top is shiny and set and the sides have begun to pull away slightly, about 35 minutes for fudgy brownies.
