Alice Medrich's Best Cocoa Brownies by Genius Recipes
loading...
By taking out the chocolate, with its inevitable fat and almost-inevitable sugar, Medrich was able to control and fine-tune the proportions of both. When she added back in the fat (via butter), the middles stayed softer. When she added back in granulated sugar, the crusts were shinier and more candy-like. Any cocoa will work, but natural (not Dutch process) will taste more richly of chocolate. Recipe adapted slightly from Bittersweet (Artisan, 2003)
Ingredients
- 10 tablespoons (1 ¼ sticks) unsalted butter
- 1 ¼ cup sugar
- ¾ cups plus 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (natural or Dutch-process)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 cold large eggs
- ½ cup all-purpose flour (unsifted, measured by stirring briefly, spooning into the measuring cup until it's heaped above the rim, then leveling it with a straight-edged knife or spatula -- it should weigh nearly 2.5 ounces)
- ⅔ cups walnut or pecan pieces (optional)
