    Makes about 12

Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
4 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
Vanilla ice cream

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 9 x 9 x 2-inch metal baking pan. Combine butter, unsweetened chocolate and bittersweet chocolate in heavy medium saucepan. Stir over low heat until melted and smooth. Remove from heat. Add 1 cup sugar and stir until sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Stir in vanilla extract.

    Step 2

    Whisk eggs and 1 cup sugar in large bowl to blend. Whisk half of egg mixture into chocolate mixture. Using electric mixer, beat remaining egg mixture until pale yellow and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Gently fold chocolate mixture and salt into egg mixture. Gently fold in flour, then white chocolate chips. Spoon into prepared pan.

    Step 3

    Bake brownies until tester inserted into center comes out with moist crumbs attached, about 28 minutes. Transfer to rack. Cool completely. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; let stand at room temperature.) Cut brownies into squares. Serve with Crme Anglaise and ice cream.
