Deliciously Decadent Semi-Sweet Chocolate Brownie Recipe
Description
These semi-sweet chocolate brownies are the perfect treat for when you want something sweet but don’t want to overindulge. With the perfect balance of sweet and rich, these brownies are sure to satisfy any chocolate craving. They’re gooey, decadent and oh so delicious!
The key to making these brownies is to use semi-sweet baking chocolate. This type of chocolate has a richer flavor than regular chocolate and is also less sweet. It’s the perfect combination for making a delicious brownie. You can use any type of semi-sweet baking chocolate you like, but I prefer to use Ghirardelli semi-sweet baking chocolate because of its intense flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 cups semi-sweet baking chocolate, chopped into small pieces
- 1 cup butter, melted
- 2 cups white sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour one 9x13 inch baking pan.
2. In a medium saucepan, melt the semi-sweet baking chocolate and butter over low heat. Remove from heat, and stir in the sugar until smooth.
3. Beat the eggs in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Stir in the vanilla extract. Gradually stir the chocolate mixture into the eggs. Add the flour, salt and walnuts (optional). Mix well.
4. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 25 minutes. The brownies should be slightly firm to the touch, but still gooey in the center.
5. Allow to cool before cutting into squares.
Notes
- If you want to make these brownies extra rich and decadent, try adding in some chocolate chips or chopped nuts before baking.
- For a different flavor, try using milk chocolate or dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet baking chocolate.
- These brownies can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week.
