Brownies (By Nick Malgieri) image

This recipes comes from the master baker, Nick Malgieri's cookbook, Chocolate: From Simple Cookies To Extravagant Showstoppers (which won the prestigious IACP/Julia Child cookbook award). This recipe makes a very fudgey dense brownie - not at all cake-like. The original recipe stated to cook it for 45 minutes, but I found them to be done after 35 minutes. It also states to let the brownies cool in the pan and cover with plastic wrap until the next day. Additionally, it states to unmold onto a cutting board, turn brownies right-side up and trim away the edges & then slice into 2-inch squares. Well, we couldn't wait until the next day to eat them and I can't even imagine throwing away my favorite part - the edges! NOTE: According to the recipe you can use Bittersweet Chocolate, if desired but I used Semisweet.
