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.
