Chef's Tips

It is not a good idea to melt the chocolate in the microwave as the chocolate can easily overheat.

When baking the brownies check after 20 minutes, if you overcook them the brownies may be a little too dry.

If you want a less rich brownie, use dark Belgian cooking chocolate with 50% cocoa solids instead.
