Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 8 oz bittersweet chocolate (chopped)
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.5 tsp ground cinnamon
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.75 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
In a microwave-safe bowl or a double boiler, combine the butter and chopped bittersweet chocolate. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth. Let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and the melted chocolate-butter mixture until well combined.
Add the eggs to the mixture, one at a time, whisking thoroughly after each addition, followed by the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually fold this dry mixture into the wet ingredients using a spatula until just combined.
Stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs (do not overbake for fudgy brownies).
Remove the pan from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, lift the brownies out using the parchment paper overhang and cut into 16 squares.
Serve and enjoy your warm and spiced Cinnamon Chocolate Brownies!
