Equipment

  • 1 9x13" glass baking dish
  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 whisk
  • 1 sauce pan
  • 1 wooden spoon
  • 1 spatula
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 4 squares Ghirardelli 60% bittersweet chocolate (2 ounces)
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter melted (1 cup)
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour (Bleached flour toughens baked goods)
  • 1 tsp. real vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs
  • 12 oz. bag miniature chocolate chips divided use

Instructions
 

  • Melt chocolate and butter in a small saucepan over low heat; cool.
  • Beat eggs with a whisk; add granulated sugar and vanilla.
  • Add cooled chocolate mixture plus flour and combine.
  • Stir in 1 cup of the miniature chocolate chips.
  • Spread into a greased 9x13” glass baking dish.
  • Sprinkle remaining ½ cup miniature chocolate chips on top.
  • Bake at 350° for 45-60 minutes until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Cool completely before cutting into brownies.

Notes

NOTE: Each oven is different. Because these brownies have so much sugar they take a good while to bake thoroughly. The key is baking long enough but not overcooking the brownies so they become tough. The baking time is a guide only. My oven runs slow so I usually end up baking things longer.
 
NOTE: You must cool the chocolate at least 10-15 minutes or you will end up with scrambled eggs!
 
NOTE: You can also substitute unsweetened chocolate for the bittersweet chocolate in the recipe. You can increase the amount to four-ounces or four one-ounce squares.
