Easy Chocolate Brownies

Brownie Batter

1. Preheat oven to 350 F (176 C).
2. Line an 8 inch square brownie pan with parchment paper, let paper hang over sides.
3. In a medium bowl, hand whisk together flour, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.
4. Using a separate medium-large bowl combine dark chocolate chunks, dark brown sugar, and hot melted butter.
5. Stir with a rubber spatula until sugar is melted and chocolate chunks are mostly melted.
6. Let chocolate mixture cool to almost room temperature before adding eggs. Stir in eggs, espresso powder and vanilla until mixed.
7. Spoon in half the flour mixture into the chocolate mixture, stirring with spatula until well mixed. Repeat with remaining flour mixture.
8. Scoop batter into brownie pan and level with spatula.
9. Bake in middle to lowest rack for 30-35 minutes. Brownies will be soft in the middle and firm as they cool.
10. Let brownies completely cool before lifting from pan.

Chocolate Sauce

1. Heat heavy cream and pour onto chocolate chunks. Stir until becomes a creamy chocolate sauce.
2. Add powdered sugar and stir with fork until thick! More sugar makes a thicker sauce, and less will keep it thin. Add sugar and stir until you reach desired thickness.
3. Drizzle onto cooled brownies. Sprinkle with sea salt.
