Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups Semisweet chocolate chips
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Guinness stout
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and line it with parchment paper, allowing the paper to hang over the sides for easy removal later.
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, add the semisweet chocolate chips and stir until smooth and fully combined. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition until the mixture is light and creamy. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Slowly pour in the melted chocolate mixture, whisking constantly to combine.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the Guinness stout into the batter and gently fold it in until evenly incorporated.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs attached.
Remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once fully cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Cut into 12 squares and serve. Enjoy!
