These Milk Chocolate Brownies by Executive Pastry Chef Selina Progar are meant to be customized, tinkered with, and made special for any sweet tooth and any special occasion.

 Ingredients

• Dark chocolate - like godiva - 206 g

• Butter - 206 g

• Eggs  - 246 g

• Sugar - 396 g

• Cognac - 2 oz

• All purpose flour - 150 g

• Cocoa powder - 53 g

• Salt - 5 g

Instructions

• Prepare a 8 x 8 x 3 baking pan - spray with pan spray and lay parchment in to the pan with the parchment coming up the sides on the pan. This is very important, as once the brownies cool you will need to lift the brownies out the pan to trim and cut and place back into the pan.

• Combine butter and chocolate to melt either in the microwave 1 minute at a time or over a double boiler.

• The mixer fit with the whip attachment, combine eggs, sugar, and cognac on and whip for 4 minutes until light in color and thick.

• Add chocolate and butter mixture to the eggs mix on low speed until incorporated

• Add cocoa powder and flour and mix just until combined. Be sure not to over mix, as it will ruin the overall texture.

• Pour into the baking pan and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

• Then grab the sides of the parchment paper and lift the brownies out of the pan.

• Cut into 9 equal pieces. You can place the brownies back into the pan by fitting it with new parchment paper or setting them up on a plate.
