White Chocolate Brownies

We have a TON of leftover chocolate from our wedding. My dad went overboard in his figuring:) But I am glad because now our freezer is stocked with dark and white chocolate discs! When I saw white chocolate brownies on Tartelette's blog, I knew I had to try them!

Measuring out the chocolate. We love our new food scale!


Melting the white chocolate with the butter.



Mixing the batter, bittersweet chocolate chunks
are now included.
An added bonus!


I let them cool, then I sliced them into squares!



A close up look!



And to top things off I added a chocolate drizzle.


I took them to a dinner party and they were gobbled up!

White Chocolate Brownies
Adapted from Tartelette

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
8 ounces white chocolate
2 eggs
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tablespoon vanilla
1 cup flour
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips (I used bittersweet chocolate chunks)

Preheat oven to 350.
Grease and flour an 8 inch square baking pan, or line with foil.
Melt butter and 4 oz of white chocolate together in top of double boiler over hot water. When melted remove from heat and add the remaining white chocolate. Stir to blend well. Set aside. Beat the eggs and sugar until pale and thick.Add white chocolate and butter mixture, vanilla and flour. Beat just until smooth. Add chocolate chunks and mix in by hand, being careful not to overmix.
Pour into prepared pan and bake 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack. Cut into squares or bars. Drizzle with bittersweet chocolate if you desire.

Thanks Tartelette for the fabulous recipe!
