Servings 36
Cost 5
Ingredients
- 1 ⅔ cups dark chocolate chips (280 grams or 10 oz)
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter 42 grams
- 3 tablespoons water 42 grams
- 1 cup granulated sugar 200 grams
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 large eggs
- ¼ cup unsifted all-purpose flour 35 grams
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line an 8 inch square pan with foil and grease bottom of pan or spray with a little cooking spray.
- Heat chocolate, butter and water in a large microwave-safe mixing bowl at 50% power for 2-3 minutes, stopping to stir after the first minute and at 30 second intervals thereafter.
- Beat the sugar, salt and vanilla into the melted chocolate mixture with a wooden spoon. Beat in the eggs one at a time until smooth and glossy, then stir in the flour.
- Spread the batter in the pan and bake 35-40 minutes. Do not overbake. the brownies will firm as they cool.
- Cool completely or cool and chill. Lift from pan and cut into about 16 squares and then cut each of those squares into 4 squares to make 64 minis.
Notes
**I used extra dark chips, but bittersweet would probably work just as well. I think the brownies might be a little too sweet if made with semi-sweet.
