Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a double boiler, melt ⅓ cup dark chocolate and butter for 10 minutes.*
- Stir 1-½ cups sugar, flour, eggs, and 1 teaspoon salt in a separate bowl, then mix in the melted chocolate mixture.
- Fold in remaining ½ cup dark chocolate and semisweet chocolate. Pour the batter into a greased cast iron skillet and bake for 40-45 minutes.
- While the brownies bake, make the whipped cream: whisk heavy cream, remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar, and remaining ¼ teaspoon of salt to medium peak consistency.
- Allow the brownies to fully cool and cut into squares. Serve with whipped cream.
*Note: If you don’t have a double boiler, boil water in a pot and place a heat-safe metal bowl on top. Add the chocolate and butter to the bowl, hold the side with a thick towel, and stir with your other hand as it melts.
