Ingredients
•
3/4 cup unsifted all-purpose flour
•
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
•
1/4 teaspoon salt
•
3/4 cup white sugar
•
1/3 cup unsalted butter
•
2 tablespoons water
•
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
•
1 teaspoon mint extract
•
2 large eggs
•
12 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate, cut into 1/2-inch chunks
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch square baking pan.
2
Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
3
Combine sugar, butter, and water in a pot over medium heat; bring to a boil. Immediately remove from the heat and add 1/2 of the semisweet chocolate, vanilla extract, and mint extract. Stir until smooth and chocolate has melted. Transfer to a large bowl and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
4
Add eggs, 1 at a time, to the chocolate mixture, beating well after each addition. Gradually add flour mixture and mix until smooth. Fold in remaining chocolate. Spread batter into the prepared baking pan.
5
Bake in the preheated oven until top is dry and edges have started to pull away from the sides of the pan, about 30 minutes. Let cool completely before slicing.
