Chocolate Guinness Brownies

Method

1. 1

   Adjust oven rack to middle position and preheat oven to 350ºF (175ºC). Grease an 8- x 8-inch baking dish with cooking spray and line it with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides.

2. 2

   In a small saucepan, bring stout to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until reduced to 1/4 cup, 25 to 30 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.

3. 3

   In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt, and set aside.

4. 4

   In a large heat-proof bowl, microwave chocolate and butter on medium power, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth, about 90 seconds total.

5. 5

   Using a spatula, transfer melted chocolate and butter to a large bowl and whisk in reduced beer and brown sugar until smooth. Let it sit to cool slightly, about 1 minute, then slowly whisk beaten eggs into chocolate mixture until smooth. Using a flexible spatula, fold in flour mixture until just combined.

6. 6

   Transfer batter to prepared dish and bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached 30 to 40 minutes. (Be careful not to overbake; brownie will continue to bake as it cools.) Let cool in pan for 5 minutes. Using the parchment overhang, lift the brownies and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely for about 1 hour. Slice and serve with coffee ice cream, if desired.
