Description
Delicious chocolate almond brownies that are rich and fudgy.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Butter
- 2 cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate (1 1/2 cups melted, 1/2 cup reserved)
- 4 Eggs
- 1 Egg Yolk
- 1 3/4 cup Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa Powder
- 2 cups + 2 tablespoons Almond Flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Place 1 1/2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate and butter in a heat-proof bowl. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals until melted or over a double boiler. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together eggs, egg yolk, and sugar for 4 minutes until light and fluffy. Stir in vanilla.
- Slowly add chocolate-butter mixture, a little at a time, until completely mixed.
- Add cocoa powder, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Fold in remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips. May add more chocolate chips, if so desired.
- Pour batter into lightly greased 9 x 9 or 9 x 13 baking dish.
- If baking in a 9 x 9 baking dish, bake for 38 – 46 minutes. If baking in a 9 x 13 pan, bake for 28 – 35 minutes. Use a toothpick close to the edges to check for doneness.
- Let cool for at least 30 minutes before cutting. After brownies set-up for 30 minutes, may place in freezer for at least 15 minutes to make brownies easier to cut.
- Brownies freeze well.
Notes
- For extra chocolate flavor, add more chocolate chips as desired.
- These brownies can be stored in the freezer for longer shelf life.
