Chocolate Brownies (From The Farm Of Beverly Hills) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups unsalted butter, cut into pieces
12 ounces fine-quality bittersweet chocolate, chopped (not unsweetened)
6 large eggs
1 1/4 cups cake flour (not self-rising)
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, plus 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (not Dutch process)
3 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F Butter and flour a 13- by 9- by 2-inch metal baking pan, knocking out excess flour.
Melt butter with chocolate in a large metal bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove bowl from pan and whisk in eggs, 1 at a time.
Sift together flour and cocoa powder in a separate bowl and stir into batter with sugar and salt.
Pour batter into pan and bake in middle of oven until top is firm and a tester inserted into center comes out with crumbs adhering, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool completely in pan on a rack, about 2 hours, before cutting into 20 squares.
