Ingredients
- 2 ounces semisweet baking chocolate chopped
- 2/3 cup boiling water
- 1/2 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder
- 1 cup butter at room temperature
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 5 large eggs at room temperature
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 F. Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Set aside.
- Add chopped chocolate to a heat-proof bowl.
- Pour boiling water over chocolate, and stir until melted.
- Whisk in cocoa powder until combined. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat butter and sugars together until well-combined, about 2-3 minutes on medium-high.
- Add vanilla, and mix in eggs one at a time until combined, about 2 minutes on medium.
- Stir in chocolate mixture.
- Add flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir in just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter to prepared pan.
- Bake 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few fudgy crumbs.
- Let cool in pan 10 minutes.
- Remove to wire rack, and cool to room temperature before slicing.
Notes
- Flour: To properly measure the flour, either weigh it or aerate (sift or stir), spoon, and level.
- Checking for doneness: The toothpick should have a just a few fudgy crumbs - similar to what you look for when baking brownies. Wet batter means that it needs to bake longer.
