Father's Day on the Go...Outrageous Brownies

Brownies are loved by everyone, particularly Dads and kids but unlike kids, you can take them everywhere! Ina Garten has a wonderful recipe for them so why reinvent the wheel. Make them the day before so they can cool and harden a little. If you are taking them to the beach or on the boat, place them in a plastic container with tin foil or waxed paper in between the layers.,

Oven: 350 degrees, 30 min.

Ingredients

1 pound unsalted butter
1 pound plus 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips, divided

2 tablespoons real vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 ¼ cups flour, divided
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 cups diced walnut pieces

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 13 by 18 by 1 1/2-inch sheet pan.


Melt together the butter, chocolate chips, and unsweetened chocolate on top of a double boiler. Cool slightly. Stir together the eggs, instant coffee, vanilla and sugar. Stir in the warm chocolate mixture and cool to room temperature.

Stir together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add to cooled chocolate mixture. Toss the walnuts and chocolate chips with flour to coat. Then add to the chocolate batter. Pour into prepared pan.
