Dark Chocolate Brownies

This is another recipe thanks to the Pioneer Woman. I love it. I've never been much of a dark chocolate person; kinda prefer milk chocolate (or Krackel!) myself. But these actually turned out quite good! Rich and fudge-like. Yummy! You will need a Pepsi or some milk to wash it down with, but if you like chocolate, you will love these brownies!

You'll need:

1 cup butter

5 ounces unsweetened chocolate

1/4 cup cocoa (original or special dark)

2 cups sugar

1 T. vanilla

3 eggs

1 cup flour

3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Powdered sugar, for sifting

In a large saucepan, melt the butter and chocolate squares together.

Sprinkle in the cocoa and whisk to combine. Remove from the heat.

Let the mixture sit and cool for about 5 minutes.

Stir in the sugar and vanilla until just combined.

Add the eggs one at a time and mix throughly between each addition.

Dump in the flour and mix until halfway incorporated.

Pour in the chocolate chips and stir together until it's just barely combined and…

Looks like this! 

Spread batter evenly into a greased 8 x 8 inch pan (for thick brownies) or a 9 x 13 inch pan (for thinner brownies). Bake at 350* for 40 minutes. Check brownies using toothpick method and return to the oven if they're super doughy/gooey.

Cool completely and then sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Enjoy!
