Try it once and you’ll see why.
While I bake many different desserts, my brownies are the most requested by my friends and family.
I take my job as lead brownie chef very seriously.

Mostly because I didn’t add my secret ingredient.
What is it that makes my brownies so special?
It comes down to adding one simple thing.

Brownies, unlike many other baked goods, are relatively easy to make from scratch.
While there are some decentboxed brownie mixesout there, theyll never compare to the kind you make at home.
That means you might whip up a batchbeforedinner to enjoy for dessertafterdinner.
My secret is simple.Fold in chopped chocolate just before baking your brownies.
Its an easy addition that results in delicious, rich brownies that will make you swoon.
Buy a 1.5-ounce barfor a recipe that yields brownies in an 8x8-inch panof good quality chocolate.
Buy something you like, preferably 60% to 70% cacao for that deep, rich chocolate flavor.
Unwrap it and place it on a cutting board.
Use a large chef’s knife to cut it into shards or irregularly cut pieces.
Uniformity is not needed or desired here, so dont stress about cutting things perfectly or evenly.
Thats because the chopped chocolate almost completely disappears when baked.
Now that you know my secret, you shouldgive it a try!
