Dark Chocolate Brownies
If you are a milk chocolate person, shield your eyes. There is none to be found here. Although I suppose you could substitute regular cocoa powder and semi-sweet chips, if you are into that sort of thing. But I don’t want to know about it.
These brownies are best when warm right out of the oven.
Dark Chocolate Brownies
Preheat oven to 350
Grease a 9X13 pan
3/4 cup Hershey’s Dark Cocoa
1/2 tsp baking soda
2/3 cup butter, melted, & divided
1/2 cup boiling water
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups flour (all purpose)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
1 package of dark chocolate chips
In a large bowl, stir together cocoa and baking soda. Add 1/3 cup of the melted butter. Add the boiling water and stir until thickened. Then add sugar, eggs, remaining 1/3 cup butter and stir until smooth. Add flour, vanilla and salt and combine completely. Stir in 3/4 of the chocolate chips. Pour batter into pan, sprinkle remaining chips on top.
Bake 30-35 minutes.
I take these out before they are completely done, that way they are a little bit gooey inside.

I love all things chocolate and these sound great, even if I really don’t care for dark chocolate. LOL
