Time 1h

Yield 36 Brownies

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups sugar
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup dutch process cocoa
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup butter, melted and cooled
4 eggs
1/4 cup Kahlua or 1/4 cup other coffee-flavored liqueur
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup chopped nuts (pecans, walnuts, or almonds, for use to garnish icing when finished) (optional)
1 cup semisweet mini chocolate chips
1 ounce white chocolate, chopped or 1 ounce white chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Grease and flour a 13x9x2 baking dish and set aside (can use a mix of cocoa and flour to prevent white edges around finished brownies) In a big bowl (preferably by hand, NOT mixer), combine well the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
  • Add melted butter, eggs, vanilla, and Kahlua, and stir just until blended (do not overmix).
  • Fold in chopped nuts, if you are using them.
  • Put batter in prepared baking dish, evening out the batter with a spatula.
  • Bake for 40- 45 minutes or until the edges of brownies begin to pull away from the sides of the dish.
  • Remove from the oven and put dish on wire rack to cool.
  • Immediately sprinkle dark chocolate chips over top of hot brownies.
  • Lighly place a sheet of aluminum foil over dish to hold in and reflect heat.
  • After about 5 minutes, when chips are melted, spread over the brownies with a spatula.
  • Immediately sprinkle white chocolate over the frosting, and lightly cover dish with the foil again.
  • After about 2 minutes, when chocolate is melted, gently swirl them into the dark chocolate to create a marbleized look.
  • Let cool 2 hours before cutting.
