How to Make Chocolate Cake Brownies With Creamy Nut Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch diameter cake pan.
  2. **Cake Preparation:** Roughly chop 1 cup of walnuts. Set aside.
  3. Melt 6 ounces of chopped bittersweet chocolate and 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler). Stir until smooth and creamy. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  4. In a large bowl, beat 3 large eggs with 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar at medium-high speed for 3 minutes, or until thick and pale yellow.
  5. Beat in 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Gently fold in the reserved chopped walnuts.
  6. Using a spatula, gently fold in the cooled chocolate mixture until just combined.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly.
  8. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. **Sauce Preparation:** While the cake cools, melt 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  11. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour until smooth.
  12. Gradually whisk in 1 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and a pinch of salt.
  13. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens. Cook for 2 minutes more.
  14. Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup chopped walnuts and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  15. Let the sauce cool slightly.
  16. Once the cake is completely cool, cut into 8 slices. Top each slice with a generous spoonful of the creamy walnut sauce and serve.
