A Better Brownie Recipe

My friend Jen Rhyner gave me a wonderful brownie recipe. She lives in Scotland and gave me the recipe in grams...I had to Google and convert grams to cups. I almost bought a food scale...I heard that is the best way to get the exact amount...I'm sure I will end up buying one in the future. Tonight I made the brownies...they are delicious! Much better than my first brownie recipe. Thanks Jen!

Here is the recipe:

200 g or 1 cup good chocolate - I used 4oz of bittersweet cacao - Ghirardelli -only 113g, but sweet enough
115g or 1/2 cup butter
175g or 3/4 cup almond flour
175g or 3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
4 eggs

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Melt butter and chocolate over double boiler (glass bowl over simmering water in sauce pan - don't let the bowl touch the water) after melted - remove from heat. Add almond flour, sugar and vanilla.

Separate egg yolks from whites. Beat egg yolks and add to mixture. Whisk (electric mixer or by hand if you have strong arms) egg whites until stiff peaks. Fold in gently to brownie mixture. (to save time, I whisked the egg whites while the butter and chocolate were melting)

Pour in greased 8 x 8 baking dish. Bake 40 - 45 minutes
