Servings: 12
Calories: 272kcal
Ingredients
- 11 ounces high quality dark chocolate (bittersweet)* 300 grams
- ¼ cup unsalted butter 60 grams
- ½ cup all-purpose flour 65 grams
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- a pinch of salt
- ⅛ cup cocoa powder 15 grams
- 1 teaspoon espresso powder
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup granulated sugar 100 grams
- ¼ cup brown sugar 50 grams
- flaky salt for garnish if desired
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Layer a standard oven-size baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a pot melt together 9 oz (250 g) of chocolate with butter. Set aside. Chop the remaining 2 oz (50 g) of chocolate and set aside.
- In a separate bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt, cocoa powder and espresso powder.
- In a stand mixer fit with a whisk attachment (or a hand mixer), whip the eggs and both sugars. Whisk on high speed for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy. It's important to whip the butter and sugars this long to get the crinkly top that you know and love in a brownie.
- Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture. Change the mixer attachment to paddle attachment. Mix on low speed just until combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Fold in the cooled chocolate and butter mixture, mix on low speed just until incorporated. Add the remaining, chopped chocolate and fold everything together.
- Using a standard size cookie scoop or an ice cream scoop, scoop out the cookies onto the baking sheet, dropping them approximately 2 inches (5 cm) apart. Bake for 10 minutes at 350°F (175°C).
- Sprinkle the cookies with some flaky salt for garnish if desired. Let the cookies cool on a wire rack and ENJOY!
