Fudgy and gooey with a crusty exterior…These might be the best brownies I have ever made. Serve a big square topped with a scoop of ice cream and drizzle with my Sea Salt Caramel Sauce or cut small brownie bites, pile them in a martini glass and top with whipped cream

for a “Brownie Martini”!

8 ounces dark chocolate, chopped

3/4 cup cocoa powder, sifted

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
