Boyfriend Brownies

This boyfriend brownie recipe makes very chocolatey, dense brownies that go great served warm with ice cream! A girlfriend of my brother’s used to make these for him. Try them with pecans instead of walnuts, or use white chocolate chips for half of the chocolate.

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 ½ cups white sugar
• ⅔ cup unsalted butter
• ¼ cup water
• 2 (12 ounce) bags semisweet chocolate chips, divided
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 4 eggs
• 1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9×9-inch baking dish.

Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl; set aside. Combine sugar, butter, and water in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir until butter melted and sugar dissolved. Off heat, stir in 1 bag chocolate chips and vanilla extract until chocolate melted; transfer to a bowl. Beat in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition until smooth. Fold in flour mixture until incorporated; fold in remaining 1 bag chocolate chips and walnuts. Pour into the prepared pan.

Bake in the preheated oven until top is dry and edges have started to pull away from sides of the pan, 45 to 55 minutes. Cool completely before cutting into squares.
