How to Make Fudge Brownies

  1. Position oven rack in the lower third of the oven.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  3. Grease and flour an 8-inch square baking pan. Set aside.
  4. In a double boiler (or heat-safe bowl set over a pan of simmering water), melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, and 4 ounces semisweet chocolate, stirring constantly until half is melted.
  5. Remove from heat and continue stirring until completely smooth and melted.
  6. Let cool for 10 minutes.
  7. In a large bowl, beat 2 large eggs + 1 large egg yolk with ¾ cup granulated sugar using a whisk or electric mixer on medium speed for 4-5 minutes, until thick and pale yellow.
  8. Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and the cooled chocolate mixture until completely smooth.
  9. Using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, gently fold in ½ cup all-purpose flour and ¼ teaspoon salt until just combined. Do not overmix.
  10. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly to the corners.
  11. Bake for 30 minutes. The center will still be soft; they will set as they cool.
  12. Let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack for at least 2 hours.
  13. Cut into 16 squares. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
