The Chocolate Lover’s Brownie

Ingredients

10 ounces semisweet baking chocolate

2 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate

1 cup butter (2 sticks)

6 large eggs

2 2/3 cups sugar

1 tablespoon vanilla

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup cocoa

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

Directions

Line a 9×13 baking pan with parchment paper.  Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

1. Melt the chocolate and butter together in the microwave, stirring frequently.  Be careful not to burn the chocolate.
2. In a large bowl, mix the eggs, sugar, vanilla and salt together until the mixture is smooth.  Stir in the melted chocolate mixture. 
3. Add the cocoa and mix well.  Add the flour and stir until just combined.  Pour the finished batter into the pan. 
4. Bake for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few sticky crumbs.  Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on the rack.  Once cool, lift the cake from the pan and cut into servings with a serrated knife on a bread boar.
