How to Make Double Fudge Whole Wheat Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter.
  3. Add 2 cups granulated sugar and stir until combined.
  4. Heat gently until the mixture is hot and begins to bubble slightly. This helps dissolve the sugar for a shiny top.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Let the mixture cool slightly until you can comfortably touch it with your finger.
  7. In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs. Gradually add the cooled chocolate mixture to the eggs, whisking until smooth and slightly thickened.
  8. Stir in 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour and 2 cups chocolate chips until just combined. Do not overmix.
  9. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  10. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs but no wet batter.
  11. Remove from oven and let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. For best results, chill overnight before cutting and serving to allow the bran to soften.
  12. Cut into squares and enjoy!
