Summary

Tender, deeply chocolatey brownies made with freshly milled soft white wheat flour, boasting a crackly top and rich, fudgy crumb with warm vanilla notes.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper or butter it well.

  2. 2

    In a medium saucepan over low heat, add sugar, chocolate chips, and butter. Melt gently, whisking until smooth and shiny; let cool slightly.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and cocoa powder.

  4. 4

    In the bowl of a stand mixer (or mixing bowl with hand mixer), add the eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla; beat until frothy.

  5. 5

    With the mixer on low, slowly stream the warm chocolate-butter mixture into the eggs, mixing just until combined.

  6. 6

    Fold in the dry ingredients until just incorporated; fold in mix-ins if using.

  7. 7

    Optional: Let the batter rest for 10 minutes to hydrate the whole grains.

  8. 8

    Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and bake 25–35 minutes, until the top is shiny and the center is set with no wobble.

  9. 9

    Cool in the pan until firm for clean slices; brownies will set further as they cool.
