How to Make Fudgy Chocolate Chunk Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9 inch glass baking dish.
  2. Melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 12 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips in a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth and melted.
  3. Remove from heat and let cool for 15 minutes.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. In a large bowl, beat together 2 cups granulated sugar, 4 large eggs, 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  6. Gradually add the cooled melted chocolate mixture to the wet ingredients, beating until smooth.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. Fold in 1 cup chopped walnuts and 6 ounces of coarsely chopped semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  9. Pour batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  10. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. The top should appear mostly set.
  11. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. This allows them to set up properly and makes for cleaner cuts.
