Ingredients
1 1/2 cup / 375 ml | EGG Creations Whole Eggs Original, well shaken |
1 tbsp / 15 ml | vanilla extract |
2 1/2 cup / 625 ml | granulated sugar |
6 oz / 180 g | unsweetened baking chocolate, roughly chopped |
6 oz / 180 g | semi-sweet baking chocolate, roughly chopped |
1/4 cup / 50 ml | canola oil |
1 cup / 250 ml | unsalted butter |
3/4 tsp / 4 ml | baking powder |
1 tsp / 5 ml | salt |
1 1/2 cup / 375 ml | all-purpose flour |
Directions
Preheat oven to 325°F (180°C). Line a 9 x 13-inch (3.5 L) baking pan with overhanging nonstick foil or lightly greased parchment paper.
Whisk flour with salt and baking powder in a small bowl; set aside.
In a large, heavy saucepan, melt butter with oil over medium-low heat. Add both chocolates, and cook, stirring until melted and smooth. Remove from heat. Whisk in sugar and vanilla.
Whisking constantly, pour in eggs, mixing until smooth and glossy. Add flour mixture and mix just until incorporated.
Spread batter evenly into prepared pan; bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until a tester inserted in centre comes out with just a few wet crumbs.
Cool in pan for 20 minutes; use foil overhang to transfer to a rack to cool completely. For the cleanest slices, chill for 1 hour before slicing.
