Thomas Keller’s Brownies

Cover of Ad Hoc at Home

If you received Ad Hoc at Home for Christmas and are wondering what to make first, may I suggest the chocolate brownies? They are easy to make but sinfully delicious. Yes, they call for three sticks of butter, but it is still the holidays! The best touch is chopping a high-quality dark chocolate bar into “chips” to scatter through the batter. When you eat a brownie, it’s like tiny chocolate explosions in your mouth.

The brownies taste best the day they are made or the next day, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Invite your friends over, as these brownies do not keep.
