See here for an extended How To: Beurre Noisette (Browned Butter) along with a wonderful muffin recipe.
Beurre Noisette Brownies (Browned Butter Brownies)
Print recipe here
10 TB (1 1/4 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 1/4 C raw cane sugar
3/4 C natural unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tsp water
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
¼ tsp celtic sea salt
2 eggs
1/3 C + 1 TB flour, unbromated and unbleached
1 C chopped nuts- walnuts, pecans, peanuts, hazelnuts, etc.
1. Position rack in bottom third of oven; preheat to 325 degrees F. Line 8x8x2-inch metal baking pan with foil, pressing foil firmly against pan sides and leaving 2-inch overhang. Coat foil with a little butter or spray.
2. Make your Beurre Noisette (Browned Butter) by melting butter in medium saucepan over medium heat. Continue cooking until butter stops foaming and browned bits form at bottom of pan, stirring often for about 5 minutes.
3. Remove from heat; immediately add in sugar, cocoa, water, vanilla, and salt. Whisk to blend. Let cool 5 minutes (mixture will still be hot).
4. Add eggs to hot mixture one at a time, whisking vigorously to blend after each addition. When mixture looks thick and shiny, add flour and stir until blended. Beat vigorously 60 strokes. Stir in nuts. Transfer batter to prepared pan.
5. Bake brownies until toothpick inserted into center comes out almost clean, about 25-35 minutes. (There will be some fudgey chocolate on the toothpick and will not be like checking a cake.) Cool in pan on rack. Using foil overhang, lift brownies from pan. Cut into any size squares you desire.
here are the substitutions: replace 2 teaspoons water with Organic Cherry Concentrate, replace 1 cup walnuts with 1/2 cup chopped pecans and 1/2 cup dried cherries.
Simply divine and simply addictive! I will never make a pan of these with no one around, it would be far too dangerous. I could barely stop myself enough to bring them to share at a birthday dinner!
