Salted Dark Chocolate Chunk Brownies
Why I love this recipe: 3 words, chocolate, chocolate, chocolate. And I don’t even have to get out my mixer! Try using white chocolate chips for an extra shot of sweetness.

INGREDIENTS:
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 cup 1 stick unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 eggs at room temperature
- 1/2 cup bitter sweet chocolate chunks
- 1 teaspoon flake salt
- 2 teaspoons turbinado sugar
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8 inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder and salt. Set aside.
- Melt the butter in a medium bowl using the microwave in 20 second increments until just melted, about 40 seconds. Whisk in the sugar and vanilla until incorporated. Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, until smooth.
- Using a rubber spatula fold in the flour mixture until a few streaks of dry ingredients remain. Add the chocolate and fold a few more strokes to incorporate. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle with the flake salt and turbinado sugar. Bake for 28 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. Allow to cool completely in the pan.

üòç...amazing‚ĺÔ∏è My son is coming home tomorrow from college..he graduates in May üíØ- so proud...but I will make these for him while he is here ..And he will love them!! My family loves all of Giada‚Äôs recipes and we think Giada is awesome‚ú®üèÜ
Personally I do not like these brownies. I am not a fan of adding salt to the top and I did not appreciate the dry, cake-like texture, there was no deep, rich chocolate flavor. I made these for a group of women and 3 of the 4 agreed that there are much better recipes worthy of the calories!
