My Favorite Brownie Recipe…For Now

I am slowly getting back to normal and have seen this recipe in some of my favorite blogs.  They are doing the TWD thing and this is the recipe from a couple of weeks ago.  Holy cow is it ever good.

CHIPSTER TOPPED BROWNIES

Brownie layer:

1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

3 oz unsweetened chocolate

2 sticks butter

1 2/3 c sugar

4 eggs

1/2 t salt

1/2 t vanilla

1 cup flour

1 cup chopped pecans

Melt chocolates and butter together in double boiler until shiny.  Beat eggs and sugar until pale and creamy.  Beat in salt and vanilla.  Slowly add chocolate mixture.  Then add flour just until mixed.  Fold in nuts my hand.  Put batter in 9 X 13 butter and paper-lined pan.

Cookie Dough Layer:

1 1/4 cup flour

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 1/2 sticks softened butter

3/4 cup brown sugar

2/3 cup white sugar

1 egg

1 egg yolk

1 tsp vanilla

1 cup chocolate chips

Whisk together flour, salt and baking soda.  Cream together sugars and butter until smooth and creamy.  Add eggs one at a time until combined.  Beat in vanilla.  Add dry ingredients until just mixed and then add chips.  Drop dough by spoonfuls on top of brownie dough and then spread with spatula.  Bake 50-55 min at 350.  Let cool and then cut into bars.These are to die for.  My favorite….for now anyway.

And Sunday my driver got his first win as a driver/owner. 

Congrats Tony Stewart and everyone at Stewart-Haas Racing.  Ain’t nobody deserved this win anymore than y’all.
