Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (85g)
  • ½ cup chocolate chips (85g)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar (100g)
  • ½ cup brown sugar (106g)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • ¼ cup black cocoa powder (20g) 3 Selefina "try-me" packets
  • ½ teaspoon cream of tartar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour (45g)
  • ¼ teaspoon french grey salt or sea salt
  • ½ cup chocolate chips (85g)
  • fleur de sel for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and butter and flour an 8X6” pan.
  • Melt the butter and ½ cup chocolate together in a small pan over low heat or in the microwave in 30 second increments. Stir often so the chocolate does not burn. 
  • Whisk both sugars, the egg and yolk together in a bowl until smooth. Add in the vanilla, melted chocolate and butter and whisk until the mixture is fully combined.
  • With a rubber spatula, mix in the flour, black cocoa powder, cream of tartar and french grey salt until just combined. Fold in the remaining chocolate chips.
  • Spread the brownie batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until you’re able to roll the goop that comes off of a toothpick inserted into the center into a ball between your fingers.
  • Sprinkle with fleur de sel and let cool in the pan completely before slicing.
