Nashville, TN – For more than 40 years, Saucepan Brownies have made the list of Martha White® Kitchen Favorites. They are moist and chocolaty, easy to stir up and use ingredients that you usually have on hand.
“We still love these brownies, but with many people looking for more intense chocolate flavor, we thought it might be fun to have to a double chocolate version of the classic,” said Martha White baking expert Linda Carman.
Our Double Chocolate Saucepan Brownies use both unsweetened and semi-sweet chocolate for a full and more complex chocolate flavor. This recipe is a breeze to make because the butter and chocolate are melted in a saucepan and all the remaining ingredients are added and mixed in the same pan. Using self-rising flour means you don’t have to measure small amounts of baking powder and salt. Because it is so easy, this rich brownie is the perfect recipe for last-minute company, bake sales or a family picnic.
