Decadent Salted Pretzel Brownies
Ingredients
- 2 4 oz. sticks butter diced
- 6 oz. dark chocolate roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1-1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- 1-1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tablespoon instant espresso powder
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 cup mini pretzels divided
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350° degrees F and line a 9×13-inch baking pan with a piece of parchment paper.
- Add butter and chocolate to a medium saucepan and melt over low heat.
- Stir in the cocoa powder and whisk to dissolve the cocoa in the warm mixture.
- Remove from heat and stir in the sugar and vanilla.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking constantly between each addition.
- Fold in the flour, instant espresso powder, and dark chocolate chips.
- Lightly crush half of the pretzels and fold those into the brownie batter.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan.
- Arrange the remaining pretzels on top of the brownie batter.
- Bake until brownies are mostly set, yet slightly gooey in the middle, 40-45 minutes.
- Start checking doneness at 35 minutes with a toothpick – it should come out clean with moist crumbs and not completely dry.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
