Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1.25 Cups of Flour Sifted
  • 3/4 Teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 8 Ounces of High Quality Chocolate your preference Cut into chunks
  • 12 Tbsp. of Unsalted Butter
  • 1 Cup of Chocolate Chunks
  • 1.5 Cups of Sugar
  • 4 Large Eggs Plus 1 Yolk
  • 1 Tbsp. Vanilla Extract Note, I make my own [because of course I do], it's really easy just soak vanilla bean in vodka, you can cut one of them open you want, wait a few months and you'll have better Vanilla than any crap from the store

Method
 

  1. Step 1- Preheat the oven to 325F, prep a 13 x 9 baking dish by placing aluminum foil inside the dish (this will help once it's all cooked) spray it with cooking spray.
  2. Step 2- Melt the chocolate (carefully, I usually melt it by putting the chocolate bowl in a water bath).
  3. Step 3- Melt the butter and mix with the melted chocolate, then add sugar and mix.
  4. Step 4- Separately, Mix the flour, sugar, and baking powder together.
  5. Step 5 - Add the eggs and vanilla to the chocolate mixture, make sure the egg are completely incorporated, then fold in the dry mix. Add in the chocolate chunks
  6. Step 6- Once everything is mixed, transfer to the baking dish, bake for 30 minutes. Check for doneness you don't want it to be too dry, when you test with a fork or tooth pick a little bit of crumbs should stick to the fork.
  7. Step 7 - Allow to cool for a hour then cut and enjoy!
