Double-Chocolate Espresso Almond Brownies
Double-chocolate espresso almond brownies
These are based on a recipe from The New Basics Cookbook.
Recipe:
6 oz semisweet chocolate chips, plus 3 oz more
8 Tbs unsalted butter, room temp.
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 Tbs mayonnaise
3/4 c sugar
pinch of salt
1/2 c unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 c almonds
1 heaping tsp espresso powder
Melt 6 oz of chocolate chips in a medium saucepan over low heat.
Once melted, off the heat add the butter and beat until smooth.
Stir in the vanilla, eggs, and mayo, mixing thoroughly.
Then add the sugar, salt, and flour, and mix well. The dough will be fairly stiff.
Finally, add the remaining 3 oz chocolate chips, the almonds, and the espresso powder.
Mix well and pour into a foil-lined and then greased 8x8-inch pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 min, until just set.
Allow brownies to cool in the pan, and then cut into one-inch squares (yes, really).
These are very rich but oh so good!

That looks great. I have that cookbook, and like all of hers/theirs it has amazing stuff in it...yet I find I rarely actually make anything from them. What else do you recommend from them?
I love brownies. They are my weakness.
You eat brownies? I thought you only ate granola bars and soup.

Cham, I use New Basics more as a reference--my version of the Joy of Cooking (which I also have, of course.) Have you made the chicken marbella from the Silver Palate? I love it!
