Best Cocoa Brownies. Best Cocoa Brownies The family I married into is pretty great. My sister-in-law is one of my most trusted friends. My father-in-law loves a long chat with his son and always tells him funny news stories that get back to me.

So, before Linda and my sister-in-law went to France recently, she asked if my husband and I would like anything. “No, thanks. And then, she came back with this: This is deep, dark, pure unsweetened Valrhona cocoa powder, and it makes a chocolate brownie so light, so fluffy and perfectly moist that after one bite, you’d think you had died and gone to heaven. Some day soon, I’ll dream up other delicious ways to use the cocoa powder (ideas are welcome!) Linda, I’ve already told you, but I’ll tell you again: THANK YOU!

I don't find the excess liquid makes a terrible difference in the texture.

Rather than add it at the beginning, you could also brush the syrup into the hot brownies at the end, letting it soak in, and then return them to the oven for a few more minutes to evaporate what little liquid is left. Or do both, like I do. Here's my basic recipe, which I'm totally winging most of since I can't remember what I do half the time: 16 oz. Preheat oven to 350. Mix sugars, eggs, vanilla scrapings, and 1/3 cup of the Guinness reduction (cool it down first so you don't cook the eggs) until well blended. (Save the empty husk of the vanilla and stick it in the bottom of a reasonably airtight jar of sugar. Remove.
