My little brother is serving an LDS mission in Chile and every letter I get he is asking me for "American" chocolate. So this week I played with a couple of brownie recipes and this one was so yummy....I packed them up and shipped them to Chile, I hope they arrive in one piece! If your a chocolate lover, you'll love these :)
3/4 cup salted butter, cut into cubes
2/3 cup unsweetened Hershey's cocoa powder
1 2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/4 tsp salt
2 large eggs
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup very coarsely chopped Hershey's milk chocolate bar
Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease an 8-inch square baking dish. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Take the pan off the heat, then stir in the cocoa powder until smooth. Add in the sugar and salt. Stir in the eggs and vanilla until just blended. Sprinkle in the flour and gently combine using a rubber spatula, then fold in the chopped chocolate. Pour the batter into the baking pan and spread evenly. Place the pan into the oven and bake it for 33-38 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in comes out clean. Make sure not to overbake so the brownies can stay a fudgy consistency. Let cool and slice. Enjoy with ice cold milk :p
