Barefoot Contessa Brownies have fantastic flavor, perfectly moist, and rich in chocolate. This is the recipe I have been using for brownies and my family loves these. You can store brownies in airtight container at room temperature for 2 days.

- 1 pound + 12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
- 6 ounces bitter chocolate

- 2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
- 2-1/4 cups sugar
- 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups chopped walnuts
How to make brownies
Preheat the oven at 350F. Butter and lightly flour 12×8 inch baking dish.
In a medium bowl, melt butter, 1 pound chocolate chips, and bitter chocolate over simmering water. Remove the bowl from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a large bowl, stir together eggs, vanilla, coffee granules, and sugar. Mix warm chocolate mixture with egg mixture and let it cool to room temperature.
