Double Chocolate Brownies with Walnuts

Rich, fudgy and very satisfying, these yummy brownies take just minutes to prepare in

your Cuisinart® Food Processor.

Makes 25 brownies, each about 1-1/2 inches square.

8

tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

2

large eggs

 

and hot

1

teaspoon pure vanilla extract

3

ounces unsweetened chocolate, cut

1/3

cup all-purpose flour

 

into 1/2 -inch pieces

 

1/3

cup walnut halves and pieces

1

teaspoon instant espresso powder

1/3

cup milk chocolate morsels

1/2

cup granulated sugar

 

 

1/2

cup packed dark or light brown sugar

 

 

Preheat oven to 350° F. Brush an 8-inch square baking pan with some of the melted butter. Fold a sheet of aluminum foil so that it is 8 inches wide by 15 inches long. Place it in the baking pan so that the long ends extend over two opposite sides of the pan and fold the excess down the outside edge. Brush the foil bottom and sides.

Place the unsweetened chocolate and espresso powder in the work bowl of the processor. Using long pulses, pulse to chop the chocolate, 10 times. With the machine running, add the hot butter through the feed tube in a steady stream and process until chocolate is melted. Scrape work bowl and lid. Add sugars to work bowl. Process until smooth, about 10 seconds. Place eggs and vanilla in a liquid measuring cup with pour spout, stir with a fork to blend. With the machine running, add the egg mixture in a steady stream, process 10 seconds. Scrape the work bowl. Place the flour, nuts and chocolate morsels on top of the chocolate mixture. Pulse until just combined, 4 to 6 times. Do not over process. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to smooth the top. Bake in the preheated 350° F oven for about 35 to 40 minutes, until top is some- what shiny and just beginning to crack. Cool on a rack for 10 minutes, then loosen the foil sides and use them to lift the brownies out of the pan. Cool completely on a rack before cutting.

Cut into 25 squares.
