Buttermilk Brownies - made August 3, 2023 from The Ultimate Brownie Book by Bruce Weinstein
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into tablespoons
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate
3 ounces unsweetened chocolate
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9 x 13-inch baking pan with foil and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a small bowl, stir together flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder. Set aside.
- In the top half of a double boiler set over hot water, combine butter, bittersweet chocolate and unsweetened chocolate. Stir until completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together sugar, eggs and egg yolks for several minutes until pale yellow and thick. Add buttermilk and vanilla extract, beating until combined.
- Stir in dry ingredients until just combined. Pour into an even layer into prepared pan. Bake for 20 minutes then bang pan onto oven rack 3-4 times. Continue baking for another 15 minutes or until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely before cutting and serving.
You can also see they didn't cut cleanly which drives me a little nuts as I prefer clean cuts. Overall, they're still good. But consider them as dense cake rather than brownies. Or, if you like cakey brownies, then these will suit you just fine.
