Alright I have been working on a true bakery style brownie for a minute. I want that crinkly top, fudgy center, but I don't want all the refined sugar. These are mostly refined sugar free.
So the only technical piece to this recipe is the egg and sugar whipping, this is what creates the crinkly top. So give it a good whoopin'. And we use a double boiler method to melt the chocolate. I prefer this over the microwave as it is much gentler and will keep your chocolate from burning.
In other news, you can see my new pot holders that I have added to my shop! I have been really busy creating these and I love them so much! I hope to have seasonal pot holders year round. This batch is officially the "Fall" Pot holder. I am in the process of creating the "Winter" ones, which will be so beautiful in your kitchen for the holidays. I made these with an insulated batting that will prevent your hands from burning when you are moving hot pots and pans.
These will are limited stock and I won't restock when they are gone! So grab them while they are available!
If you decide to shop around, I've also added aprons that I have embroidered! They are 100% flax linen aprons that are so incredible. They would make great Christmas gifts for the baker in your family. The Beeswax bread bags are also restocked and I have a ton of amazing prints in the flat corner bags!
Alright...now for what you are really here for! BROWNIES!
Bakery Brownies
15 large brownies
Ingredients:
1 cup milk chocolate chips
3/4 cup cocoa powder (divided)
1 1/4 cups of butter
6 eggs
1 cup coconut sugar
1/2 cup organic sugar
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 tbsp vanilla bean paste
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 cup fresh milled soft wheat flour
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9x13 baking pan with parchment paper. This is the pan I love.
Use a double boiler method, fill a pot with water and bring it to a simmer. Place a heat proof glass bowl inside the pot so that the the glass doesn't touch the water, but the steam heats the bowl. Add the butter, milk chocolate chips and 1/4 cup of the cocoa powder to the bowl. Stir occasionally until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
Take the bowl off the pot, and allow it to cool for a few minutes.
Whip together eggs, coconut sugar, organic sugar, salt, and vanilla bean paste. Incorporate some air at this stage, use a whisk attachment on your mixer. It will become light and fluffy and will take about 8 minutes. Add in the cooled chocolate sauce, and pure maple syrup. Mix well. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of cocoa powder and the flour to the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, and drop the pan on the counter 1-2 times to knock some air out of the batter. Bake the batter for 20-25 minutes. 20 minutes for a more fudgey center, and 25 minutes for a more set center.
Allow them to cool. Slice them up, and enjoy!

Hank's business gained momentum. By 2000, he had purchased 1.3 acres link in link growing East Louisville and broke ground to build an 8,500 square foot first-of-its-kind luxury jewelry store to give Louisvillians an unprecedented jewelry-buying link experience. In 2001, Davis Jewelers was born.
I think this is a new era link for vintage Patek, link Kavak told me. "I think it is one of the most important things that could happen right now is to have someone as big as him put his weight behind loving vintage link Patek. And now that he's started the trend, we will see more and more people in his world wearing these important watches."
Now, those of you who have been following HODINKEE for a long time might remember that three of the four watches sold this weekend have been featured on the link site before. Jean-Claude Biver shared the pink-on-pink 1518, the yellow gold 2499, and the platinum 1579 as link part of his Talking Watches way back in 2014. If you want a little more context for these watches and want to get Biver's personal take on each, I highly recommend you check that out link too.
While the original concept version that toured to the bottom of the ocean on the Limiting Factor (that's the name of Vescovo's submarine) was a massive chunk of titanium measuring 55mm link across and some 28mm thick, the new link Ultra Deep, which is available in titanium or a brand-new steel alloy called "O-MEGASTEEL", measures 45.5mm link wide and just 18.12mm thick.
