How to Make Rich Decadent Chocolate Chunk Brownies

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. Grease and flour an 8x8 inch (20x20cm) square baking pan. Shake out any excess flour.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, melt together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 12 ounces (340g) dark chocolate (chopped), and 2 tablespoons strong brewed coffee.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat 3 large eggs with 1 ½ cups (300g) granulated sugar until pale and creamy. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Gently stir the warm chocolate mixture into the egg and sugar mixture until combined.
  6. Fold in 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour using a wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Chop 8 ounces (227g) of your favorite chocolate into chunks. Spread half the chocolate chunks evenly across the bottom of the prepared pan.
  8. Pour the brownie batter over the chocolate chunks.
  9. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chunks over the batter.
  10. Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until edges are set but the center is still slightly wobbly. (A toothpick inserted into the center will not come out completely clean.)
  11. Let the brownies cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes before cutting and serving. Enjoy warm with ice cream or cold on its own!
