Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ¼ cup butter
- 5 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 eggs room temperature
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoon Singing Dog vanilla
Dry Ingredients
- ¾ cup tapioca flour
- ¼ cup 22/24 Dutched cocoa powder
- ¾ scoop chocolate protein powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 4 oz milk chocolate bar crushed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees and line the bottom of a 9x9 baking pan with parchment paper.
- Melt the chocolate chips, butter, and olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring often, until creamy. Set aside.
- Whisk the cocoa powder, flour, protein powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
- Whisk the eggs, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Add the melted chocolate and mix again.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix with a rubber spatula until just combined. Fold the chopped chocolate bar into the batter.
- Pour the batter into the pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 34 to 48 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
- Cool the brownies in the pan for at least an hour until the top is cracked and the brownies are set. Slice and enjoy.
Notes
Storage
- Store the brownies at room temperature for up to 4 days in an airtight container.
- Wrap individual brownies in plastic wrap and freeze them for up to 2 months in an airtight, freezer-safe container.
- Bring to room temperature before serving.
- Mix the batter until just combined to avoid tough brownies.
- Stir the chocolate constantly while melting it to avoid scorching.
- Leave an overhang on either side of the pan when you line it with parchment paper to make removing the brownies easier.
- For baked goods, always bring cold ingredients to room temperature before mixing unless otherwise specified. It makes mixing easier and helps avoid overmixing.
