    From Baking Brownies Just Right: Cakey, Chewy, or Fudgy

    List of Ingredients




    Yields sixteen 2-inch squares.

    4 oz. unsweetened chocolate

    2 oz. (4 Tbs.) unsalted butter, softened at room temperature; more for the pan

    3/4 cup sugar

    1 Tbs. plus 1 tsp. light corn syrup

    2 large eggs, at room temperature

    2 tsp. vanilla extract

    1/4 cup milk, lukewarm

    2-1/4 oz. (1/2 cup) all-purpose flour

    1/2 tsp. baking powder

    Pinch salt

    Recipe



    Position an oven rack on the middle rung. Heat the oven to 350°F. In a double boiler over simmering water, melt the chocolate. Remove the pan from the heat; cool slightly. Butter an 8-inch square pan, line the pan bottom with parchment (or waxed paper), and then butter the parchment.

    In a medium bowl, cream the butter with a fork. Beat in the sugar and corn syrup; be sure there are no lumps in the mixture. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking thoroughly. Add the vanilla and milk. Whisk until incorporated, about 30 seconds. The batter may appear broken; this is okay. Whisk in the melted chocolate, beating until the batter is smooth and has thickened slightly, 30 to 60 seconds. Stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt so they're well blended; stir the dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture until incorporated. Scrape into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean with a few moist crumbs clinging to it, 20 to 30 min.

    Set the pan on a rack until cool enough to handle. Run a paring knife around the inside edge of the pan and then invert the pan onto a flat surface and peel off the parchment. Flip the baked brownie back onto the rack to cool completely. Cut into squares with a sharp knife.

    Notes
    • This recipe can be doubled easily; use a 13X9-inch pan and increase the baking time slightly.

    • The recipe gives a range of baking times -- use the shorter time for metal pans, the longer for Pyrex pans.
