Yield: 2 dozen

Adapted from Barefoot Contessa

 

 

Ingredients:

½ pound butter

½ pound semi-sweet chocolate chips

3 ounces unsweetened chocolate

3 eggs

1 tablespoon instant coffee powder

1 tablespoon real vanilla extract

1 cup + 2 tablespoons sugar

¼ cup + 2 tablespoons flour, divided

½ tablespoon baking powder

½ teaspoon kosher salt

1 cup white chocolate chips

 

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350F. Spray and line a 13x9 sheet pan with parchment paper – this helps to lift the brownies out of the pan after they’ve cooled.

 

Melt together the butter, chocolate chips, and unsweetened chocolate on top of a double boiler – put a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water – don’t let the bowl touch the water. Cool slightly.

 

In a separate bowl, stir together the eggs, instant coffee, vanilla and sugar. Stir into the warm chocolate mixture and cool to room temperature.

 

Stir together ¼ cup flour, baking powder and salt. Add to cooled chocolate mixture. Toss the white chocolate chips with 2 tablespoons of flour to coat. Then add to the chocolate batter. Pour into prepared pan.

 

Bake for about 30 minutes, or until tester just comes out clean. Do not over-bake. Cool thoroughly, refrigerate well and cut into squares.
