Rick Katz's Brownies for Julia



These brownies have solidified my love of baking. I was a little scared of this recipe when I first read it. You have to melt the butter and chocolate and stir in sugar. Then you mix sugar and eggs and pour half of that mixture into the warm chocolate mixture. You can't stop mixing because the chocolate can cook the eggs. That seemed super scary to me so I avoided these for a while. It ended up being really easy.

After that you whip the balance of the sugar and eggs until it doubles in size and fold it into the mixture before adding the dry ingredients.

These brownies are amazing. So light and fluffy but fudgy at the same time. The people in my office were freaking out. They were the talk of the office (they actually were) and some very inappropriate food porn noises were heard while some people delighted in this afternoon snack.

This recipe will for sure be repeated in the very near future.
