How to Make Light Chocolate Chunk Brownies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9x9 inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy removal.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup packed light brown sugar, ½ cup unsweetened applesauce, ½ cup sour cream, 6 ounces melted bittersweet chocolate, 2 large eggs, and ¼ cup vegetable oil until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
- Sprinkle generously with 6 ounces chopped bittersweet chocolate chunks.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached.
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang.
- Peel off the parchment paper and cut into 16 squares.
