Triple Chocolate Brownies Light Recipes

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Melt the butter and dark chocolate together in a large heavy based pan over a low heat.
• In a bowl or large measuring jug, beat the eggs together with the superfine sugar and vanilla extract.
• Allow the chocolate mixture to cool a little, then add the egg and sugar mixture and beat well. Fold in the flour and salt. Then stir in the white chocolate buttons or chips, and the semisweet chocolate buttons or chips. Beat to combine then scrape and pour the brownie mixture into the prepared tin.
• Bake for about 25 minutes. You can see when the brownies are ready because the top dries to a slightly paler brown speckle, while the middle remains dark, dense and gooey. Even with such a big batch you do need to keep checking on it: the difference between gooey brownies and dry ones is only a few minutes. Remember, too, that they will continue to cook as they cool.
• To serve, cut into squares while still warm and pile up on a large plate, sprinkling with confectioners' sugar pushed with a teaspoon through a small sieve.

TRIPLE-CHOCOLATE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly butter a 9-inch square baking pan and line with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on all sides. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine butter, bean puree, and chocolates and microwave in 30-second increments, stirring each time, until melted and smooth, about 2 minutes. Whisk in sugar, eggs and egg white, and vanilla until smooth.
• In a small bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir into chocolate mixture until just combined. Pour batter into pan; smooth top. Bake until top is cracked and a toothpick inserted in center has moist crumbs attached, about 25 minutes (center will seem undercooked but will set further as it cools). Let cool completely in pan on a wire rack. Using parchment, lift brownie from pan and cut into 16 squares.

TRIPLE-LAYERED BROWNIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottom and sides of 9-inch square pan with shortening and lightly flour, or spray with baking spray with flour.
• In 2-quart saucepan, melt 1/2 cup butter and the unsweetened chocolate over medium heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; cool 5 minutes. Stir in eggs, brown sugar, flour and vanilla until smooth. Spread evenly in pan.
• Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on cooling rack about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, heat whipping cream and white baking chips just to boiling over medium heat, stirring frequently. Remove from heat. Stir in cherries. Spread filling over brownies. Refrigerate about 30 minutes or until set.
• In small microwavable bowl, place chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons butter. Microwave uncovered on High 30 seconds; stir. Microwave 15 seconds longer; stir until melted and smooth. Spread glaze evenly over filling. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes. For brownies, cut into 8 rows by 6 rows. Cover and refrigerate any remaining brownies.

BIG-BATCH TRIPLE-CHOCOLATE BROWNIE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush a 13-by-18-inch rimmed baking sheet with butter. In a bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt until thoroughly combined.
• In a large heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, melt butter with 10 ounces (2 cups) bittersweet chocolate. Remove from heat; stir until smooth. Let cool 5 minutes. Add both sugars, eggs, and vanilla and beat on medium speed, or whisk vigorously by hand, until thickened slightly and glossy, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce speed to low; beat in flour mixture just until combined. Stir in two-thirds of nuts and dried fruits.
• Transfer batter to prepared sheet, spreading evenly to edges. Sprinkle evenly with white chocolate and remaining nuts, dried fruits, and 1 cup bittersweet chocolate. Gently press toppings into batter with flattened palms.
• Bake until edges are puffed and just set but center is still wobbly, 20 to 23 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack; let cool completely. Cut lengthwise into thirds, then crosswise into 1-inch-thick rectangles. Bars can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 5 days, or stacked between layers of parchment in a freezer bag and frozen up to 1 month. (Thaw at room temperature before serving.)
