chewy chocolate brownies

there is a lot going on here.  and it's a bit stressful.  my quiet life has turned chaotic and it's
a challenge for me.
so i do what i do best when i feel this way.  i either cook or i bake.  i find that words to tell a story
don't come easy at times like this.

so for now i will leave you will a recipe.

a chewy dense chocolate delight. 

4 tablespoons butter
4 ounces dark or semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
2  eggs
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup  dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips
preheat oven to 350 degrees  grease a 9x9-inch pan.
in a large saucepan, melt the butter and chopped chocolate over low heat until smooth. remove from heat. stir in the eggs, sugars, and vanilla extract. fold in the flour, baking powder, and salt.
allow the batter to cool to room temperature before adding the chocolate chips.
transfer batter to the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean with a few crumbs. cool before slicing into squares.

enjoy, xo
