Fudgy Fantastic Brownies

I found this recipe on the Modern Honey blog and went to Trader Joe's to purchase the chocolate that she recommended to cut into chunks for the recipe.

So happy I did because it melted right into the batter.  Delicious, moist and fudgy brownies, grandsons gave them two thumbs up.

Ingredients:

1 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 1/2 cups granulated white sugar

1 cup light brown sugar

4 large eggs

2 teaspoons vanila extract

1 1/4 cup flour

1 cup unsweetened Cocoa Powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups Chocolate Chunks, divided. (I chopped the Trader Joe's chocolate bar

                                                         pictured above to get 1 1/2 cups).  

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt butter.  Remove from the microwave and stir in sugar and brown sugar until dissolved.  Stir well to remove all graininess from the sugars.  Stir in eggs and vanilla.

Fold in flour, cocoa powder and salt.  Fold in 1 cup of chocolate chunks, reserving 1/2 cup to sprinkle on the top.

Pour into a lightly sprayed 9 x 13 baking pan.  I lined the pan with parchment paper for easier cutting.  Spread batter evenly in the pan.  Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup of the chocolate chunks.

Bake for 20-25 minutes.  Remove from oven and let cool for at least 10-15 minutes before cutting into squares.  If preferred, sprinkle with Maldon sea salt flakes.
