Double Chocolate Brownies

Brownies and chocolate chip cookies are two desserts that I will always try a new recipe for even though  I have tried and true recipes that I use regularly. There is just something about CCCs and brownies... usually there isn't a bad one in the bunch!

These brownies are AMAZING! So chocolately and gooey and fudgy. Eat them warm, room temperature, or cold. Either way they are fantastic!

Double Chocolate Brownies
Recipe from Buns in my Oven

1 cup (2 sticks) butter

2 1/4 cups sugar

4 large eggs

1 1/4 cups cocoa powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon espresso powder, optional

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9x13 baking dish.

In small saucepan over low heat, melt butter completely. Stir in sugar and continue cooking for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly. Do not allow sugar mixture to boil.

Pour butter mixture into a large bowl or stand mixer, beat in cocoa powder, eggs, salt, baking powder, espresso powder, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.

Stir in the flour and chocolate chips until well combined.

Pour into prepared pan and bake for about 30 minutes, until a tester comes out mostly clean. The edges should be set and the center should still look slightly moist, but not uncooked. Cool on a wire rack.
