CHILI BLEND, True Cinnamon
Ingredients:
2 sticks (unsalted) butter
2 cups granulated (white) sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
4 eggs, slightly beaten
2/3 cup cocoa powder
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp True Cinnamon
3/4 tsp Chili Powder Blend
1 1/2 cups (milk chocolate) chunks
Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray (with cooking spray) and then line (with parchment paper) a 9 x 9 inch baking pan. Make sure some of the paper hangs over the edge of the pan. Melt the 2 sticks of butter in a saucepan over medium heat (do not boil). After melted, remove the pan from the heat and cool, slightly. Add the sugar, eggs and vanilla to the pan and stir until combined. Add the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, salt, and spices. Mix (with a spoon) until fully combined. Pour this mixture into the prepared pan. Bake for 20 minutes and then remove from the oven and sprinkle the top of the batter with the chocolate chunks. Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes. Cool completely, and then lift the brownies from the pan via the parchment paper. Cut into squares and serve.
