A few weeks ago I shared a recipe from Extreme Brownies my new favorite cookbook. I have been going from cover to cover baking each and every recipe. These "PMS" brownies are another rich, chewy, chocolaty brownie that I have made and shared several times now, they are quite popular in my house and will be in yours too I believe.
Connie’s “PMS” Brownie
3 sticks unsalted butter
2 cups,60% bittersweet chocolate chips
6 large eggs, at room temperature
3 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups cake flour
1 cup and 2 tablespoons Dutch-processed unsweetened
cocoa powder
Adjust the rack to the middle level of the oven and preheat to 350 F. Prepare a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with heavy duty aluminum foil, spray foil with cooking spray or grease with vegetable shortening
Cut the butter into 1- inch chunks. In a small, heavy saucepan, melt the butter pieces over low heat; add the chocolate chips. Stir with a small whisk until combined and the chocolate is melted and smooth. Turn off the heat but leave the saucepan on the burner until ready to use.
Using a whisk, lightly beat the eggs in a large mixing bowl. Place the sugar and salt in a separate small mixing bowl, then whisk into eggs just until incorporated. Briefly whisk the melted chocolate mixture, then gradually whisk into the egg mixture until just combined, whisk in the vanilla.
Place the flour and cocoa powder in a small mixing bowl; whisk to combine. Sift through a strainer directly into the batter; stir into mixture with a spatula until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 34 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Transfer the pan to a cooling rack and let cool at room temperature for at least 15 minutes, then refrigerate the pan for 7 or 8 hours, or overnight.
Remove brownies from the pan then peel off and discard the foil. Place the slab of brownies on a cutting board. Cut brownies with a sharp knife that as been heated in hot water. Enjoy!

Oh, I wish I wasn't on a diet. I am off sugar ( or, at least cut down), but I know it will not last. The holidays are coming and I am weak. I will save this recipe till then.
I always love a new brownie recipe. Sounds thick and chewy....yum!
