Flourless
Chocolate Brownies
- 2 cups (12-ounce package)
NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels
- divided use
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Baking Cocoa
4 large eggs
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup pecans, finely ground (optional)
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- Preheat oven to 300ºF
(150ºC). Line 9-inch-square baking pan with foil. Grease
bottom and sides.
- Heat 1 1/2 cups morsels,
butter and water in medium, heavy-duty saucepan over low heat,
stirring constantly, until morsels and butter are melted and
mixture is smooth. Stir in cocoa until smooth. Remove from heat.
- Beat eggs and sugar in
medium mixer bowl until thick, about 4 minutes. Stir in vanilla
extract. Fold 1/3 of egg mixture into chocolate mixture. Fold
in remaining egg mixture, one half at a time, until thoroughly
incorporated. Fold in pecans. Pour into prepared pan.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes
or until risen in center and edges start to get firm and shiny
(center may still move and appear underbaked). Cool completely
in pan on wire rack (center may sink slightly). Cover; refrigerate
for 4 hours or overnight.
- Place cream in small,
uncovered, microwave-safe dish. Microwave on HIGH (100%) power
for 25 to 30 seconds. Add remaining 1/2 cup morsels. Let stand
for 2 to 3 minutes; stir until chocolate is melted.
- Spread ganache over chilled
brownie. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Using two opposite sides
of foil, carefully lift the entire brownie out of the pan and
place on cutting board. Carefully peel away foil from brownie.
