The recipe can be modified to only use one type of chocolate chip but I have found that the combination is a nice balance of flavor.
The unsweetened chocolate gives a bump in the chocolate richness.

Recipe Multiplier

  • 8 oz Unsweetened Chocolate
  • 7 oz Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 7 oz Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 1 lb Unsalted Butter
  • 1 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1 tbsp Vanilla
  • 26 oz Sugar
  • 8 ea Whole Eggs
  • 6 oz All Purpose Flour
  • ½ lb Optional -Toasted Walnuts

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325°
  • In a heat resistant bowl, combine the butter cubed, unsweetened chocolate chopped, both chocolate chips.
  • Place the bowl over a pot with about one - two inches of water. Bring the water to a simmer and melt all ingredients in the bowl.
  • In a mixer, combine the eggs and sugar. Whip on high and whip the eggs and sugar to full volume.
  • Add the Vanilla to the eggs and sugar.
  • Reduce the speed of the mixer to low and slowly drizzle in the butter and chocolate mixture into the egg and sugar mix.
  • Once the chocolate is combined in the mixer scrape down the sides and bottom of the mixer bowl.
  • Add the salt and flour to the mixing bowl. Mix on low to combine the flour. Scrape the bowl sides and bottom to ensure ingredients are combined.
  • Optional - add toasted walnuts if using.
  • Spray an half sheet pan with nonstick spray.
  • Pour the brownie batter into the half sheet pan.
  • Bake for 40 - 45 minutes.
    I like to bake for 40 minutes it gives a soft chewy brownie.
    Another 5 minutes will make more dry finish to the brownies.
