How to Make Bourbon Fudge Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x9 inch baking pan.
  2. In a small saucepan, bring 1/4 cup bourbon (or hot milk for a non-alcoholic version) to a simmer. Remove from heat and add 12 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips, stirring until completely melted and smooth.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients (from step 3) to the wet ingredients (from step 4), mixing on low speed until just combined. Then, gently fold in the melted chocolate mixture (from step 2).
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs attached.
  8. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
