3 ounces bittersweet chocolate. chopped
1/2 cup butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 F. In a double boiler over simmering water, melt bittersweet chocolate and butter. Stir in brown sugar and vanilla. Take off heat. Add eggs and mix thoroughly. Add flour, cocoa and salt, mixing until smooth. Stir in chocolate chips.

Pour batter into an 8-inch square pan. Bake until a toothpick or knife inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs sticking to it, 20 to 25 minutes.

Notes: Double boilers are great for gently melting chocolate, but if you don't have a double boiler there is another method that uses common kitchen equipment. Put chopped chocolate in a small metal bowl along with any other ingredient you need to melt, such as butter. In a large frying pan over high heat, bring about one inch of water to a low boil. Take pan off the heat and set the bowl in the water. Let sit, stirring occasionally, until chocolate is melted, 5 to 10 minutes.
