Ingredients
1/2cupwhole wheat flourI used white whole wheat
1/2tbaking soda
1/4tsalt
1/2cup(1 stick) unsalted butter
1cuppacked light brown sugar
1/2cupunsweetened cocoa powderI used natural, the recipe did not specify
2eggs
1tvanilla
approx. 7 oz of chocolate bars broken into chunks1/2 espresso flavored and 1/2 mint flavored
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350F. Line an 8 inch square baking pan with parchment paper that hangs over the edges. Set aside.
Melt the butter in a small-medium saucepan over low heat. Add the sugar and stir for 4 minutes or until the mixture is smooth and the sugar is dissolved. Remove from the pan and pour into a mixing bowl, scraping to remove everything.
Add the cocoa powder and whisk smooth. Beat in the eggs and vanilla with a wooden spoon or spatula until completely blended.
Stir in the flour until completely blended but do not over-stir. Fold in the chocolate chunks. Scrape the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top evenly.
Bake for 16-20 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of the pan comes out mostly clean. Let cool completely before removing the brownies from the pan (use the parchment overhang) and slicing.
