Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking dish with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, cayenne pepper, and cocoa powder. If possible, sift all ingredients first. Set aside.
- In a microwave safe bowl, melt together abuelita chocolate chunks and butter. Stirring occasionally so that it does not burn. Whisk in sugar and vanilla extract first. Then whisk in eggs. Pour these wet ingredients into your bowl of dry ingredients. Combine well with a spatula.
- Pour and spread into baking dish. Bake at 350°F for 22 minutes. Brownies may look raw still but they will continue to bake once removed from the oven. Sprinkle a bit of flaky salt on top. Let brownies cool for about 30 minutes before digging into them.
